A few more celebrities have been added to the roster of guests at the Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo.
The talent line-up will now include Brandon Routh, known from the show Arrow or as Clark Kent from Superman Returns.
Also announced is Brett Dalton, known as Agent Grant Ward from Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.
The third celebrity announced Tuesday is Carl Weathers, the pop culture legend from the likes of Rocky and Predator.
Expo spokesperson Emily Expo said online ticket sales for 2015 are going faster than ever.
“For our online sales, we are 90 per cent sold out of Saturday and weekend passes. Our retailors that have the hard copy tickets, they still have a fair few left, so worry not,” Expo said.
The expo is on track to break 2014’s record of 97,000 people in attendance. The growing popularity is credited to the expo’s ability to offer variety.
“Norman Reedus from The Walking Dead is super popular, but if you’re not in to The Walking Dead then you might be super excited for Gwendoline Christie from Game of Thrones, we’ve got a couple of the people from Sharknado coming,” Expo said.
The tenth annual Comic & Entertainment Expo is just two months away, running from April 16-19.
The event already boasts a long list of international talent including recently announced Jason Momoa from Game of Thrones and Graham McTavish, known for his roles in the Hobbit and Outlander.
