A herd of Hollywood stars may still make it to Sydney for the final Supanova Comic Con and Gaming convention in December after all other shows were cancelled.
Organisers on Wednesday officially hoisted the white flag on Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth shows in November, while leaving the door ajar for one last hoorah in 2020 on December 5-6 at The Dome at the Sydney Showgrounds.
Supanova has been running in Australia since 2002 and is a fan convention that attracts Hollywood celebrities with a focus on science-fiction and fantasy films and TV shows as well as comic books, gaming and collectibles.
Among the hundreds of celebrities to appear over the years have been Game of Thrones star Natalie Dormer, Teri Hatcher and Dean Cain from the 1990s hit TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman and Christina Ricci, who played Wednesday in the Addams Family movie.
Organisers were still hopeful of staging the events outside of Sydney despite the pandemic sweeping the world before officially calling it off on Wednesday.
“As always, we will be adhering to the advice of the NSW Chief Medical Officer, and should December also look to be unviable, we will unfortunately have to close the book on Sydney for the year as well,” organisers said in a statement.
A Supanova representative told NCA Newswire they were still in negotiations with celebrities to appear in Sydney but have yet to lock anyone in.
If Sydney falls over as well, the conventions are scheduled to return next year with the first show in Melbourne on the second weekend of April.
