Star Wars fans won’t want to miss this year’s LA Comic Con. The event previously announced Ewan McGregor (aka Obi-Wan Kenobi) as a major headliner. Now, LA Comic Con has revealed another big name in Star Wars will join the event as well: Hayden Christensen.
Christensen played Anakin Skywalker in Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith. He also recently appeared in the Disney+ series Ahsoka.
Other Star Wars Universe stars making their way to LA Comic Con this October include Giancarlo Esposito and Rosario Dawson.
“One of the biggest joys of creating a Fan-driven convention is creating opportunities for fans to meet their heroes. Today’s announcement that Hayden Christensen is joining us on Sunday, Oct. 6th is one of those days, as he’s been one of our most highly requested fan favorite guests for years,” said Chris DeMoulin, CEO/GM of LA Comic Con parent company CEI. “Having Hayden, Ewan McGregor, Rosario Dawson and Giancarlo Esposito all at the show this year we hope really makes LA Comic Con 2024 a must-attend event for fans of the Star Wars universe.”
In addition to big names from Star Wars, this year’s LA Comic Con will also bring together the stars of Back to the Future for a special cast reunion.
