The Orville Heads to New York Comic Con
The crew of The Orville
The Orville is heading to New York Comic Con.
Comicbook.com reported earlier this week that the stars of the hit sci-fi dramedy will be appearing on a panel on the main stage. This will be the show’s first major event since San Diego Comic Con. That’s where series creator Seth MacFarlane announced that The Orville season 3 would be making the jump from FOX broadcast television, over to Hulu. At the time, he said in a statement, “My friends at [FOX] understood what I was trying to do with this series [...] But as the show has evolved and become more ambitious production-wise, I determined that I would not be able to deliver episodes until 2020, which would be challenging for the network. So we began to discuss how best to support the third season in a way that worked for the show. [...] I am hugely indebted to Charlie Collier and FOX Entertainment for their generosity and look forward to developing future projects there. And to my new friends at Hulu, I look forward to our new partnership exploring the galaxy together.”
The description for the New York Comic Con panel reads: “Emmy-nominated series The Orville is back for season 3 and heading to New York! Join the dynamic crew of the U.S.S. Orville: Adrianne Palicki, Penny Johnson Jerald, Scott Grimes, Peter Macon, Jessica Szohr, J Lee, Mark Jackson & Chad L. Coleman and Executive Producers David A. Goodman, Jon Cassar & Brannon Braga to celebrate the show and learn about its exciting, new adventures on Hulu!”
The Orville panel is slated to take place on Sunday, October 6th, at 3:15pm, on the main stage of the Javits Center.
