AMC Networks returns to Comic-Con International in San Diego, CA with a dynamic lineup of fan-favorite series panels and a not-to-be-missed Shudder activation based on the hit film CLOWN IN A CORNFIELD, which makes its Shudder and AMC+ streaming debut on August 8, among other activities. Panels include a return to Hall H for The Walking Dead: Daryl Dixon, featuring an exclusive first-look at the official trailer from the third season, premiering Sunday, September 7 on AMC and AMC+; and Ballroom 20 panels for two series in AMC Networks’ Anne Rice Immortal Universe, including the new season of the critically acclaimed Anne Rice’s Interview with the Vampire, which began production in Toronto last month, and the newest series, Anne Rice’s Talamasca, premiering in October on AMC and AMC+.
Additionally, the IFC Entertainment Group will have cast and producers from a number of films participating in three panels, including Collider’s Ladies Night After Dark, featuring female filmmakers in the independent space; The Bold Voice of Contemporary Horror panel, spotlighting a variety of horror films; and Leave Them in Suspense panel, which will include Adam Cesare, award-winning author of the book Clown in a Cornfield, on which the film is based.
“Comic-Con remains the ultimate celebration of fandom and is the perfect stage to showcase AMC Networks’ most beloved franchise series and films,” said Dan McDermott, president of entertainment and AMC Studios for AMC Networks. “Whether it's an autograph from Norman Reedus and Melissa McBride, a first look at Sam Reid as rockstar Lestat, or a frighteningly fun encounter with Clown in a Cornfield’s Frendo, we're thrilled to be back in San Diego offering this passionate fanbase a variety of unique and meaningful ways to connect with the stories and characters they love.”
