Legends at Center of First-Ever Branded Takeover of San Diego Airport |
TNT
is bringing its eagerly anticipated drama Legends to Comic-Con International: San Diego 2014 with multiple events
and initiatives, including the first-ever branded
takeover of San Diego International Airport. The gripping undercover
drama starring Sean Bean (Game of
Thrones, The Lord of the Rings)
is the centerpiece of TNT's extensive presence at this year's Comic-Con, which
takes place July 24-27 at the San Diego Convention Center.
This year's Comic-Con will also
feature events spotlighting TNT's top-rated new series The
Last Ship, including a party with CraveOnline
aboard the USS Midway, and Falling
Skies, with a special alien cocoon experience highlighting a key
element in the show's fourth season. In addition, stars and producers from all
three shows are set to participate in discussion panels and Q&A sessions.
Below is a complete rundown of
TNT's initiatives for Comic-Con International: San Diego 2014.
TNT's Comic-Con invasion will begin with the Legends takeover of San Diego International Airport, marking the first time a brand has ever taken over the airport. Travelers flying into San Diego the week of July 21 will be greeted with Legends imagery and messaging throughout the airport, including at baggage claim carousels and on escalators and skyway bridges. The Legends messaging will also extend to other parts of San Diego, with eye-catching billboards in the Gaslamp Quarter.
During Comic-Con, TNT
is set to feature a Legends panel with
cast members Ali Larter (Heroes),
Morris Chestnut (American
Horror Story, Nurse Jackie)
and Tina Majorino (Grey's
Anatomy, True Blood),
and executive producers Howard Gordon (Homeland, 24) and David Wilcox (Fringe). The session
will open with a screening of the entire first episode of the series. Following
the screening and panel, Legends cast
members are set to participate in an autograph-signing session.
