Disney Entertainment Television Is Taking Over Downtown San Diego For Comic-Con
While Marvel Studios will not be holding its traditional presentation at San Diego Comic-Con, Disney will still have a significant presence at the event.
Previously, we brought you the news that the studio had big plans for Tron: Ares at Comic-Con. Now, I am pleased to announce that Disney Entertainment Television is once again planning a downtown takeover.
According to a new report from Deadline, Disney will have activations for shows including Percy Jackson, King of the Hill, Alien: Earth, and Abbott Elementary beginning July 24.
Here is what fans have to look forward to!
‘Abbott Elementary’
Abbott Elementary will return to Comic-Con with “A Very Abbot Block Party.” There, “the blacktop’s been cleared; the faculty is off-duty (kind of); and the neighborhood has come out to play — no permission slips required.”
