‘Star Wars’ Celebration Announces Sam Witwer, Matt Lanter, Katy O’Brian as Guests
The stream of guests coming to Star Wars Celebration continues to expand, with three new names being added. StarWars.com announced today that Sam Witwer, Matt Lanter, and Katy O’Brian.
Witwer voiced Darth Maul in Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Star Wars: Rebels, and Solo: A Star Wars Story. He recently celebrated the 11-year anniversary of his call with Dave Filoni in which he was asked to voice Maul in The Clone Wars. Lanter voiced Anakin Skywalker in The Clone Wars, and the recently-released LEGO Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. He told Entertainment Weekly last year that he was doing a new project for Lucasfilm Animation, and we still haven’t found out what that is. It’s possible we’ll know more after Star Wars Celebration, where new projects could be announced.
Finally, Katy O’Brian, who played one of Moff Gideon’s officers in The Mandalorian. The three of them will be participating in photo ops, but it’s unknown if they will be included in any panels too. If you are interested, you can book your photo ops here. The list of people signing autographs and taking pictures with fans includes Ashley Eckstein, Carl Weathers, Anthony Daniels, Giancarlo Esposito, Ian McDiarmid, Joonas Suotamo, and Katee Sackhoff, among others.
So far, the organizers have announced a 90-minute live-action TV shows and films panel, a Mandalorian-only panel, and a Bad Batch panel. More news will come out in the final weeks leading up to Celebration, including whether they will screen the first two episodes of Obi-Wan Kenobi on Thursday, which has been highly speculated.
If you are thinking about attending Star Wars Celebration in Anaheim, there are still tickets available here. Both The Resistance Broadcast and StarWarsNewsNet will be there. In fact, if you are interested in participating in a Happy Hour with the TRB crew, and then watching them do a live episode of the podcast from Anaheim, make sure you sign up here.
Miguel Fernández is a Spanish student that has movies as his second passion in life. His favorite movie of all time is The Lord of the Rings, but he is also a huge Star Wars fan. However, fantasy movies are not his only cup of tea, as movies from Scorsese, Fincher, Kubrick or Hitchcock have been an obsession for him since he started to understand the language of filmmaking. He is that guy who will watch a black and white movie, just because it is in black and white.
