NYCC 2018: “SuperMansion” & “South Park” Events Announced

Posted on by

 

The roster continues to build out.

With South Park returning with all-new episodes on September 26th @ 10pm ET/PT, it would certainly behoove Comedy Central to make an appearance at New York Comic Con, and that’s exactly what they are going to do.

Comedy Central South Park‘s interactive fan activation that will take place all weekend, Thursday, October 4 – Sunday, October 7 during convention hours (Thursday-Saturday from 10:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. and Sunday from 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m.).

Cartman’s Escape Room is making its New York Comic-Con debut. Trapped! Caught in another one of Cartman’s schemes, fans will now enter the most impossible to escape place ever invented. South Park fans will have a limited amount of time to solve a series of puzzles using what they know about the Emmy® and Peabody® Award-winning series to free themselves… before it’s too late. This South Park activation is free and open to all New York Comic Con badge holders, located at Booth #662.

South Park features the breathtakingly irreverent and ruthlessly funny misadventures of four foul-mouthed, troublemaking young boys in a small town nestled in the Colorado Rockies. It has been praised by the prestigious Peabody® committee as “COMEDY CENTRAL’s notoriously rude, undeniably fearless lampoon of all that is self-important and hypocritical in American life, regardless of race, creed, color or celebrity status.” We couldn’t agree more.

“South Park” continues to surprise even its most devoted fans each and every week. Known for its unbelievably immediate and ruthless responses to world events, “South Park’s” new episodes bring up-to-the-minute news and pop culture icons (including Al Gore, J. Lo, Kanye West, Oprah, Sir Elton John, Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and P. Diddy) to the town of South Park for social commentary and good old-fashioned ridicule.

 

 

 

 

 

On October 4th @ 6 pm, the Javits Center Main Stage at New York Comic Con 2018 will play host to a SuperMansion panel on the same day new episodes are set to drop on Sony Crackle that continues the show’s third season. Expected to attend the event include Zeb Wells, Matt Senreich, Bryan Cranston, Gary Anthony Williams, and Breckin Meyer for a panel that will feature Q&A and a whole lot more.

New episodes of season three will return this fall, featuring Oscar® and Emmy®-nominated actress Minnie Driver joining the cast in a recurring role as Debbie Devizo, Dr. Devizo’s (Chris Pine) ex-wife and former League of Freedom team member.

Bryan Cranston (“Breaking Bad”), Keegan-Michael Key (“Key & Peele”), Chris Pine (“Star Trek”), Jillian Bell (“22 Jump Street”), Heidi Gardner (“Saturday Night Live”), Tucker Gilmore (“Frozen”) and Zeb Wells (also writer) will all return as voice-acting stars.

Sony Crackle also released it’s first-ever free “SuperMansion” Augmented Reality App recently released. Featuring characters from the Sony Crackle original series, this AR app experience allows you to pose, take pictures and record videos with Titanium Rex, voiced by Bryan Cranston. Dab with Rex or capture his fun observations in video and photo modes, then share with your friends and family on Facebook, by text message and more!  Use the touchscreen on your device to turn Rex into a towering giant, or even make him tiny to fit into the palm of your hand. Fans can download the app in the App Store and on Google Play now.

“SuperMansion” is created by Zeb Wells and Matthew Senreich (“Robot Chicken”), who also act as executive producers under their production company Stoopid Buddy Stoodios alongside Seth Green, John Harvatine IV, Eric Towner and Tom Root.  Bryan Cranston and James Degus also serve as executive producers under their production banner Moonshot Entertainment. The special is directed by Alex Kamer, written by Tom Sheppard and Zeb Wells, and distributed by Sony Pictures Television Inc.
