Peter Capaldi and Pearl Mackie will be heading to the city that never sleeps when the pair join the likes of Matt Damon, Keanu Reeves and Kate Beckinsale at this year’s New York Comic Con.
The four-day event will be Capaldi’s first following his debut bow at this year’s San Diego Comic Con. He’ll be joined by new companion Pearl Mackie, co-star Matt Lucas, who’ll be returning as Nardole for the Christmas special and beyond, and writer/showrunner Steven Moffat.
What’s more, those in attendance will be able to get the first glimpse of new footage ahead of this year’s Doctor Who Christmas special and the new series which is set to air in Spring 2017.
But that’s not the only Doctor Who panel at this year’s NYCC – the Eleventh Doctor himself Matt Smith and his ex-castmates Jenna Coleman and Alex Kingston have already taken part in a separate panel called Tales from the Tardis. Two Doctors in close proximity! Think of the anomalies!
The Doctor Who panel comes under the BBC America Takeover which will also feature separate panels for Doctor Who spin-off Class and Dirk Gently’s Holistic Detective Agency staring The Lord of the Rings Elijah Wood.
You can also catch the writers and artists behind Titan Comics superb Doctor Who range, who will have their own panel and booth where you’ll be able to have a chat and get your comics signed too!
New York Comic Con – which is set to attract hundreds of thousands of attendees –  is taking place the Javitz Center in New York City from Thursday, Oct. 6 through Sunday, Oct. 9.
