New York Comic Con 2021

Since its launch in 2010, fans of The Walking Dead have applauded the show for delivering a wealth of well-developed female characters to the small screen. From Michonne [Danai Gurira] and Maggie Greene [Lauren Cohan] to Carol Peletier [Melissa McBride], Sasha Williams [Sonequa Martin-Green] and Rosita Espinosa [Christian Serratos], the Golden Globe-nominated series has continued to present three-dimensional women in its post-apocalyptic storylines.

Outlander fans were in for a treat at New York Comic Con when a panel for the Golden Globe-nominated series revealed behind-the-scenes secrets to an incredibly excited audience. Actor Sam Heughan was joined on the Empire Stage at Manhattan’s Javits Center by Outlander writer Diana Gabaldon and executive producer Maril Davis, while other members of the cast – including Catriona Balfe, John Bell, Lauren Lyle, and César Domboy – called into the panel from overseas.

Attendees at New York Comic Con 2021 were in for a supernatural surprise when Golden Globe winner Jason Reitman decided to host a secret screening of his latest movie, Ghostbusters: Afterlife. Reitman was scheduled to speak at a panel on the project and introduce some exclusive footage, but the filmmaker went a step further by playing the movie in its entirety – more than five weeks before its domestic release.

A Demogorgon from Stranger Things, Marvel’s Scarlet Witch and Rick Sanchez from the animated comedy Rick and Morty were three of the intricately costumed fans invited to ask David Harbour questions at his Spotlight panel at New York Comic Con. The Golden Globe-nominated actor hosted an hour-long panel at Manhattan’s Javits Center, where he discussed his acting career in television, movies, and on stage.
