At this point it’s safe to say that the ninth iteration of AnimeKon Expo – AnimeKon IX: World of Wonder – has more guests than the convention has ever had in it’s almost ten year existence. For the first time in the convention’s history, there will be seven featured guests in attendance.
The latest guest, announced only minutes ago, is none other than Kevin McNally, who played fan favourite character in the Pirates of the Caribbean franchise First Mate Joshamee Gibbs. He will also be recognisable to fans of Doctor Who from his appearance in “The Twin Dilemma” as Hugo Lang, Downton Abbey in which he assumed the role of Horace Bryant and the CW series Supernatural where he played Frank Devereaux.
Joining McNally at the convention will be fellow actors Manu Bennett, Olivia Olson and Natalie Skyy, cosplayers Kay Bear and Brit Bliss and comic book artist Charlie Adlard.
AnimeKon also recently announced cosplayer Jade Valkyrie as their first, official Geekcation Ambassador.
