The organisers of the year's San Diego Comic-Con have released the Friday, July 24th schedule for the virtual Comic-Con@Home, and it's definitely shaping up to be a pretty eventful day.
There's plenty for fans of The Walking Dead to look forward to, while Star Wars is also set to have a presence (just not in terms of film and television projects beyond a look at the gadgets from The Mandalorian). HBO Max will also be highlighting its animated projects, while a Charlize Theron panel is probably the first Hollywood big star to be confirmed for the event.
What's really intriguing, however, is the fact that Joss Whedon will be addressing fans via Zoom. While all these panels are pre-recorded, it will be interesting seeing whether he has anything to say about his work on The Avengers franchise or, more controversially, Justice League.
You can find links to each panel by clicking here, and the full schedule below:
