Dragon Con 2019: The All-Star Guest List Keeps Growing!

By  | 

We are less than 2 weeks away from Dragon Con 2019 and Dragon Con continues to announce guests attending the show! This year there will be guests from Lucifer, Gotham, Shazam!, iZombie, Black Lightning, The Orville, Doctor Who, Legends of Tomorrow, Supernatural, Arrow, Once Upon a Time, Wynonna Earp, Star Wars, Star Trek, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance and plenty of other top television shows and movies.

Karl Urban, George Takei, Lana Parrilla, Zachary Levi, David Tennant, William Shatner, Rose McIver and Cress Williams lead a long list of celebrity guests headed to Atlanta August 29 -September 2, 2019 to Dragon Con.

An estimated 85,000 fans will travel to Atlanta from all 50 states and several foreign countries to take part in Dragon Con 2019 –  filling downtown Atlanta over Labor Day Weekend – with events and activities across AmericasMart Buildings #1 and #2 and five host hotels – Hyatt Regency Atlanta, Marriott Marquis, Hilton Atlanta, Westin Peachtree, and Sheraton Atlanta.

We are delighted to have so many guests from so many of today’s most popular or, in the case of classic science fiction, best-loved shows and movies to join us this year,” convention co-chair Rachel Reeves said. “Overall, we will have some 400 guests – not just celebrities, but also actors, authors, artists, and other creators and experts – from across science, science fiction and fantasy worlds, comic books, gaming, and digital media.”

Dragon Con is set to celebrate Batman’s 80th Anniversary with four actors from Fox’s hit series, Gotham, including Sean Pertwee (Alfred), Robin Lord Taylor (Penguin), Maggie Geha (Ivy) and David Mazouz (Bruce Wayne).

Star Trek fans can debate the various merits of CBS’s Star Trek: Discovery versus Fox’s The Orville.  Anson Mount, Discovery’s Captain Pike, Shazad Latif, Emily Coutts, and Ethan Peck, as well as a crew of Orville cast members – Mark Jackson, Peter Macon, Chad Coleman, and J. Lee will be on hand to meet with fans, sign autographs, and lead panels about these space exploration fan favorites.

Farscape will celebrate its 20th Anniversary at Dragon Con, with Lani John Tupo, Anthony Simcoe, Rebecca Riggs, and fan favorite Gigi Edgley.

For classic horror fans (like myself), Robert Englund, Freddy Kreuger from The Nightmare on Elm Street franchise will be joined by V castmates Jane Badler and Marc Singer, who also starred in 1982’s The Beastmaster.

And there are so many more people to see! Who are you most excited to see? For a complete guest list click here.
