Earlier this month, we made our way to NY Comic Con to hit the showfloor, sit in on press conferences, and to watch panels where we got to see clips from these shows!
Apple+’s Slow Horses press conference gave us insight to what we can expect from S5 of the show. Director Saul Metzstein (Doctor Who, The Musketeers series, Brassic) as well as castmembers Christopher Chung (Waterloo Road, Doctor Who, Blitz), James Callis (Castlevania: Nocturne, Star Trek: Picard, Bridget Jones: Mad About a Boy), Ruth Bradley (Ted Lasso, Doctor Who: Dark Eyes, Humans), and Nick Mohammed (Deep Cover, Ted Lasso, Christopher Robin) talked about the series as well as the story arcs that are taking place in this spy thriller series.
We enjoyed catching up with the cast of Prime Video’s Cross from James Patterson’s series! We started the day with a press conference from Executive Producer, Show Runner and Creator Ben Watkins (Burn Notice, Truth Be Told, Wu Tang: An American Saga) as well as Aldis Hodge (Black Adam, City on A Hill, Leverage: Redemption), Matthew Lillard (Scream franchise, Barkskins, Bosch), Isaiah Mustafa (It: Chapter Two, Murder at Yellowstone City, I Know What You Did Last Summer), Alona Tal (Veronica Mars, Seal Team, Truth Be Told), Samantha Walkes (The Kings of Napa, The Changeling, Murdoch Mysteries), and Wes Chatham (The Help, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay 1 & 2, Tenet). Following the press conference, we also attended the panel on the Main Stage.
This year we also made our way to the press conferences for 2 of Anne Rice’s shows that are on AMC that are within the Interview with the Vampire universe. The Vampire’s Lestat brought us to Executive Producer Mark Johnson (Talamasca The Secret Order, Better Call Saul, The Holdovers), Showrunner/Executive Producer Rolin Jones (Weeds, Boardwalk Empire, Perry Mason), Sam Reid (The Astronaut Wives Club, The Legend of Molly Johnson, The Newsreader), Jacob Anderson (Broadchurch, Doctor Who, Game of Thrones), Eric Bogosian (Uncut Gems, Succession, Billions), Delainey Hayles (Carrie, Too Close, Holby City), and Assad Zaman (Hotel Portofino, Apple Tree Yard, Vera).
We also attended the press conference for Anne Rice’s Talamasca: The Secret Order of Mark Johnson, Executive Producer/Director/Writer John Lee Hancock (Snow White and the Huntsman, The Blind Side, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil), and Nicholas Denton (Eden, Foe, Dangerous Liasons series), and William Fichtner (Heat, Armageddon, Prison Break).
