Crew: June 2008 Archives
We have word of the complete lineup of panelists for the Knight Rider event being held on Thursday, July 24th at Comic Con. Scheduled to appear are:
- Gary Scott Thomspon (Showrunner/ExecProducer)
- Justin Bruening (Mike Traceur)
- Deanna Russo (Sarah Graiman)
- Sydney Tamiia Poitier (Carrie Rivai)
- Bruce Davidson (Charles Graiman)
- David Bartis (ExecProducer)
The Knight Rider panel is scheduled to take place on Thursday July 24th. Final panel arrangements are still being made, but
Gary Scott Thompson is confirmed. Also what is confirmed? The big
unveiling of footage from the series plus the new Attack-KITT, live and
in person!The theater holds 1000 people, so it shouldn't be too hard to get a seat, but I hear they don't clear the room from panel to panel. This will also be a moderated panel - where a moderator asks pre-submitted questions to the panel (vs the ask the question in the audience type thing), so we'll have more information on how to get your question asked as we get closer to the date.
Tickets are available from http://www.comic-con.org - and it looks like 80% sold out for Thursday, so place your orders now!
We were very fortunate to get some time with David Bartis today and ask few quick questions!
We were told that "things are going really well" from the production offices of the new Knight Rider series. They "are scheduled to start production on the series on June 23rd", in LA (not Vancouver which was briefly rumored last week).
Working with Gary Scott Thompson "has been fantastic" and has "continued to elevate the show in every department"! Additionally they are "doing some designing of the car to make it even cooler" as well as "adding some new cast" to the mix.
We've also been told that they will be at Comicon in San Diego in July. And so we will, to cover it!
