San Diego Comic-Con 2023 is coming — but many of the major studios and your favorite actors are not. Disney’s Marvel Studios, Warner Bros. Discovery’s DC Studios, Universal Pictures, Sony Pictures, Legendary Entertainment, HBO, Netflix, and Amazon are all skipping the pop culture confab, canceling their panel presentations amid Hollywood’s first dual union strike since 1960. (The Writers Guild of America has been on strike since May 2nd; the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists called a strike on July 14th.) Ahead of this year’s convention, we’ve rounded up all the SDCC panels still scheduled to proceed as planned at Comic-Con, which runs from July 20th—July 23rd.
