Malcolm McDowell, Skeet Ulrich and Dan Fogler round off a month of guest announcements for Capital City Comic Con

Victoria, BC – Greater Victoria’s largest pop culture convention, Capital City Comic Con, in its second year is bringing stars of stage, TV and movies to Vancouver Island. Exactly one month away (March 22 – 24, 2019), the three latest exciting additions round off a full month of guest announcements:  Malcolm McDowell’s place in movie history was secured when Stanley Kubrick cast him as Alex in A Clockwork Orange. His body of work includes the tyrannical Soran (destroyer of Captain Kirk) in Star Trek: Generations and psychiatrist, Dr. Samuel J. Loomis, in Halloween. He’s also become a mainstay to fans who love the horror genre.

 Recently inducted into the Harry Potter universe with his role as No-Maj Jacob Kowalski in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Dan Fogler is a Tony Award winning stage and screen actor. He has also starred in comedies, Balls of Fury and Good Luck Chuck and lent his voice to animated films like Horton Hears A Who! and Kung Fu Panda. He’s since reprised his role as Jacob Kowalski in the upcoming Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.

 90’s brooding bad boy Skeet Ulrich is best known for helping to re-ignite North America's love of horror movies with his infamous role as serial killer, Billy Loomis, in Wes Craven's Scream alongside Neve Campbell. He also starred in cult classic The Craft and Academy Award winner Ang Lee’s Ride With The Devil. He can now be seen starring in the wildly popular TV show Riverdale on Netflix as Jughead Jones’ father, F.P. Jones.

McDowell, Ulrich and Fogler will join previously announced guests Marina Sirtis (Star Trek: The Next Generation), Jake “The Snake” Roberts (WWE Wrestler), Garret Wang (Star Trek: Voyager), Larry Hama (Writer, G.I. Joe & Wolverine Comics) and Bob McLeod (Co-Creator, The New Mutants Comics) and so many more!
