We woke up this morning to an electrifying email from the Fan Expo headquarters!

They have officially announced their first set of guests for Fan Expo 2024 – it’s safe to say this year will be a legendary event!

Fan Expo Chicago is hosting legendary Star Trek actor and real-life space adventurer William Shatner, John Connor’s father Michael Biehn, TV icon Mario Lopez, the big bad Kingpin himself, Vincent D’Onofrio, and more!

From this year’s lineup, it’s evident that we can expect more legendary creators from iconic TV shows, movies and beyond. I wouldn’t be surprised if they bundled these guests with the likes of Linda Hamilton, Charlie Cox, and a slew of Star Wars actors!

This is all fan speculation, but I am absolutely eager to see what Fan Expo brings to the Windy City.

Personally, we are most excited to see the comic creator guest list. This is where we spent most of our time last year (read our breakdown from last year here). With the return of the X-Men and the future of the MCU and the upcoming new DCU movies, we hope for some powerhouse players from the industry. Fingers crossed!

Stay tuned for updates as we get closer to the big day!
