Major studios have announced that they will not be attending this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. Three of the largest studios, Marvel, Sony and Paramount have decided not to host presentations this year.
Marvel’s largest movies for the year, Avengers 2 and Ant-Man will have already premiered by the time of the July convention. The studio’s next big venture, Captain America: Civil War, will not be released until 2016. The studio will likely be back at Comic-Con for the 2016 convention, as they will be premiering Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Black Panther and Captain Marvel within that season.
Neither Sony nor Paramount Pictures currently have a lineup to appeal to the denizens of Comic-Con, meaning that renting the space would simply be a waste of money.
Movies and studios you can expect to see at the San Diego Comic-Con? Star Wars, DC’s Justice League, 20th Century’s Fantastic Four and X-Men, as well as the second installment of The Hunger Games: Mockingjay. As always, there will be more than enough gossip and celebrity appearances to keep the fans satisfied.
