This year’s physical San Diego Comic-Con has been canceled due to the spread of the coronavirus, but fans can enjoy the next best thing – Comic-Con@home. The virtual version of the conference will launch next Wednesday, July 22, and will end on the following Sunday, July 26.

The conference has now released its line up and among the events offered for free throughout the conference fans will be able to attend talks about titles such as Star Trek: DiscoveryHis Dark Materials, The Walking DeadBill & Ted Face The Music and more.

Another attraction is the slot dedicated to Charlize Theron—Charlize Theron: Evolution of a Badass. A one-hour retrospective of the movie star decades-long career. Fans will also get sneak peeks of new shows and movies, such as Truth seekers—a new comedy from Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, James Serafinowicz, and Nat Saunders that will run on Amazon Prime Video.

Robert Rodriguez, Colin Trevorrow, and Joseph Kosinski will lead a panel about filmmaking, and Disney+ will give fans a look at 616—a Marvel documentary series.

The online version of Comic-Con cannot be compared to the experience enjoyed by up to 135,000 people every year. It may, however, serve as a consolation prize to help the wait until next year.

Walkmans, leg warmers… and Wonder Woman.

The ’80s better prepare itself because Diana Prince means business.

Production on the sequel to last year’s Woman Woman film, Wonder Woman 1984 is already 3 weeks in, and members of the cast, as well its director, treated fans to some on-set secrets during Comic-Con.

Director Patty Jenkins revealed just why that decade had been chosen, saying, “One of my favorite things about making the original was that it took place during World War I in 1917, an era full of metaphors like modernity and the mechanized world. I grew up in the ’80s, and this has its own look and feel. The reason I am excited is it showed mankind at its best and worst. It was grand and wonderful, there was great music and there were elegant and beautiful things. But other things about the decade revealed the worst of us. To have Wonder Woman in that period of time that was us at our most extreme is wonderful.”

Jenkins also teased Chris Pine’s return (you may remember that Steve Trevor didn’t quite survive the first film…) telling the audience: “It’s something I’m super excited for everybody to see, [Chris] is a very important part of our movie.”

And if that wasn’t enough, those in Hall H also got to see a clip from the film which featured Wonder Woman, played by Gal Gadot, kicking ass in a mall.

Wonder Woman 1984 premieres on November 1st 2019.

It is not unusual for films to inspire acts of heroism, and that is exactly what happened to a guy named Joseph Scott.

Joseph attended this year’s Comic-Con in San Diego for one specific purpose — to meet Jamie Lee Curtis.

The 59-year-old actress was at the event to promote the sequel to her 1978 thriller, Halloween. The film tells the story of serial killer, Michael Myers, who kills teenage babysitters on the night of Halloween. Eeek! The movie, which turns 40 this year, inspired Joseph how to act when an intruder came into his home.

Speaking to Jamie who was on the Halloween panel, Joseph revealed to the audience that he was at home when a stranger cut his phone line and broke into his house.

“Our dog, Duchess, bit up these knitting needles and I grabbed them out of the trash and I saw the guy with the knife on one side of the house. I was scared out of my mind and out of nowhere this thought came inside of me, ‘What would Jamie Lee Curtis do?’ I ran out, ran down to the neighbors, started screaming like you did in the movie. To make a long story short, I’m here today because of the way that you portrayed Laurie Strode. I’m a victor today instead of a victim.”

The actress was understandably moved to tears (we are too!) and spent time speaking with Joseph backstage following the panel.

Let’s see what Jamie Lee Curtis does in the new Halloween which comes out October 19th.
