New Orleans is known for its laid-back attitude, can-do spirit, and it’s unique gumbo. Whether that it’s that hot bowl of goodness or fan culture New Orleans has had something for everyone. And with the debut show for Fan Expo, that attitude will definitely be at the heart of their celebrity lineup.
Amongst those stars trekking to NOLA this awesome geek weekend of January 7-9, 2022 will be such celebrities as the legendary William Shatner (Capt. Kirk) and John De Lancie (Q) from the Star Trek franchise.
But if your tastes lean more towards superheroes, there will be plenty of actors from several geek favorite franchises for the visiting. From the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe, Ming Na Wen (Melinda May/SHIELD), Michael Rooker (Yondu/Guardians of The Galaxy), and Anthony Mackie (Sam Wilson/Captain America) will be there.
