San Diego Comic-Con 2024 (SDCC) has announced this year’s schedule for its annual celebration of movies, video games, toys, and yes, comic books. Much-loved sci-fi and pop culture icons such as Doctor Who, The Walking Dead, and Star Trek will hit the stage alongside some new movies and shows coming to screens in 2024.
San Diego Comic-Con runs from July 25–28, and it will be the first entirely in-person event since 2019. The COVID-19 pandemic when the COVID-19 pandemic forced it to stage an entirely online event.
What’s on SDCC 2024’s schedule?
We have broken down the most significant announcements on the SDCC schedule to keep fans up-to-date. The three days are packed with highlights.
Thursday’s What We Do in the Shadows Farewell Kickoff showcases the final season of the vampire roommates Staten Island adventures. Jonathan Frakes brings a first look at Venus Prime, and Dan Harmon of Rick and Morty fame brings his new show to fans at SDCC.
Friday is a long day of anticipated television and limited series reveals, including The Boys, The Walking Dead, and Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. A special panel is also in place for the creators and executive producers of Invincible and the much-loved Dungeons and Dragons series Critical Role.
The final day is similarly packed, focusing on entertainment staples like The Simpsons, American Dad, and Family Guy. For comic fans, this day is interesting as we see Matt Reeves’ Batman animated show, and Marvel head honcho Kevin Feige displays the future of the cinematic universe. That means we might see Pedro Pascal as Reed Richards, and The Fantastic Four for the first time. Colin Farrell will take to the stage to show off his portrayal of Oswald Cobblepot in the upcoming Penguin HBO Original limited series.
