Peter "Chewbacca" Mayhew added to guest list, along with programming featuring Arthur Suydam and new anime screenings!
Peter Mayhew, the actor who has portrayed the beloved character Chewbacca in four "Star Wars" films, will be in the autograph area all weekend long at Wizard World Texas. Mayhew wore the Wookiee suit for all three films in the original "Star Wars" trilogy, thus creating a cultural icon. He recently donned the suit once more to portray Chewie again in the last film of the new trilogy, "Revenge of the Sith."
Recently added creator (and industry giant) Arthur Suydam will also hold a newly scheduled signing on Friday, November 7th from 2-3 p.m. at the Wizard Booth. Suydam will also hold a special Wizard School Workshop on Sunday, November 9th from 4-5 p.m. in the Wizard School Room
Lastly, Gonzo Studios, Bost Digital Entertainment and eigoMANGA present a special screening of two amazing anime at Wizard World Texas. Come to the FearFest Room (M2-3) on Sunday at 4 pm for this awesome showing.
'The Tower of Druaga - the Aegis of Uruk': Drawing its inspiration from the hugely popular 1980s arcade games of the same name, The Tower of Druaga is a fantasy epic that seldom takes itself too seriously! A cast of oddball characters set out on an epic quest in a finely tuned parody of videogame clichés that's guaranteed to put a grin on any gamer's face.
'Strike Witches': During the advent of the Industrial Revolution, humanity is threatened by an alien menace. Mankind's last line of defence are brave young girls who take to the skies to fight for the planet. Strike Witches revolves around a team of girls with magical powers, who wear special fighter plane equipment in order to fight in thrilling aerial battles.
