Then there’s the Masters of the Universe anniversary panel with Kevin Smith, who’s back again later in the day for a discussion with William Shatner. Plus, there’s Andy Serkis talking comics. 

Friday is another busy day, with panels including a look at The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, a Marvel Studios panel focused on the animated side of the MCU, and an appearance from Keanu Reeves. Saturday then features House of the Dragon and those all-important Warner Bros. and Marvel panels – expect big things, with Kevin Feige in attendance and Warner Bros. showing off Black Adam and Shazam 2.
