As predicted yesterday, more and more panels are being revealed for the upcoming San Diego Comic-Con 2013 kicking off on Wednesday, July 17 from the San Diego Convention Center.
Warner Bros. released a full slate of shows heading to the popular convention including appearances and panels with CBS hit comedy Big Bang Theory along with popular CW shows Arrow and The Vampire Diaries.
In addition to the popular panels for the well established shows, the WB will also unleash a new line up of shows debuting in 2013 with advanced screenings taking place on Wednesday night, July 17.
Preview Night is traditionally the kick off to the Comic-Con festivities, and Warner Bros will roll out three brand new shows as well as a special feature for The Originals—a spin off of the popular Vampire Diaries series.
Here is the line-up for the Preview Night features:
Almost Human: In the near future, technology and crime will increase so quickly that law enforcement will not be able to keep up. To maintain order and keep the public safe, all police officers must partner with highly evolved human-like-androids known as synthetics. From J.J. Abrams’ Bad Robot Production and Fringe executive producer J.H. Wyman, Almost Human is the story of Detective John Kennex (Karl Urban – Star Trek), and his life-like android partner Dorian (Michael Ealy – Underworld Awakening).
The Originals: From executive producer Julie Plec comes The Originals, a spinoff of The CW’s #1 series among Adults 18–34 and Comic-Con fan-favorite The Vampire Diaries. The sexy new drama centers on the Original Family, as Klaus (Joseph Morgan) returns to the supernatural melting pot that is the French Quarter of New Orleans.
The Tomorrow People: From executive producers Greg Berlanti (Arrow), Julie Plec (The Vampire Diaries), Phil Klemmer (Chuck) and Danny Cannon (Nikita), The Tomorrow People is a story of several young people from around the world who represent the next stage in human evolution, possessing special powers, including the ability to teleport and communicate with each other telepathically.
The 100: 97 years ago, Earth was devastated by a nuclear apocalypse, and mankind was nearly destroyed. The only survivors were the inhabitants of 12 international space stations that were in orbit at the time. The stations came together to form the Ark, but with resources dwindling and population growth soaring, the decision is made to send The 100, a group of juvenile delinquents, to the surface to test whether Earth is once again habitable.
The panels for the WB’s shows have also been revealed although exact times have not been released yet.
