Who’s actually showing up for San Diego Comic-Con 2023

polygon.com:

The 2023 San Diego Comic-Con, set to run July 20-23, suddenly looks sparse on the presentation front.

Likely due to the ongoing Writers Guild of America strike, which has stalled many productions and pulled creators out of promotional cycles, many studios have opted out of attending the typically star-studded fan event. Adding to the potential woes for Comic-Con: the Screen Actors Guild has voted to authorize its own strike if it cannot reach a new TV and film contract deal before June 30. Whether or not SAG strikes a deal in time, both movie and TV studios are opting to buck the annual trend of trekking to San Diego to show off the next few years of productions.

With this possible strike looming, and seemingly no imminent end to the writers’ strike, it’s also possible that many of the projects that may have made appearances at SDCC this year might have their release dates delayed anyway, giving studios even fewer reasons to jump on stage to show them off.

Here are all the major studios and what their plans for SDCC are this year, as well as the projects they have on the horizon. We’ll update this list as we hear more.

Even with some big releases on the horizon for both Marvel and Star Wars, Disney will reportedly pass on a big Hall H presentation. Marvel Comics will likely stick to plans and have a booth on the convention floor, though Lucasfilm’s presence at SDCC was expected to be sparse since its splash at Star Wars Celebration in May.

HBO will not host a panel at SDCC, and it remains unclear if it will have a booth.
