Event News: Two New Guests Announced for MCM London Comic Con

Orphan Black star Dylan Bruce is to be a special guest at this month’s MCM London Comic Con, show organisers have announced. In addition, Nikita, Kick-Ass and How I Met Your Mother star Lyndsy Fonseca is also set to attend.

The critically acclaimed, award winning sci-fi thriller sees Tatiana Maslany (Parks and Recreation) play Sarah Manning and her clone sisters, on the run from sinister biotech corporations, religious cults and the police. Dylan Bruce plays male lead Paul Dierden, a mercenary torn between his affection for Sarah and the Dyad Institute’s blackmail threats.

Created by director John Fawcett (Ginger Snaps, Lost Girl) and writer and producer Graeme Manson (Cube, The Bridge), Canadian series Orphan Black is now in its second season and airs on Space in Canada, BBC Three in the UK and BBC America in the US.

Currently guest starring in the second season of hit superhero drama Arrow, Dylan Bruce has also appeared on shows such as The Sopranos, NCIS and miniseries 24: Conspiracy. Bruce made his big screen debut in 2010 in Denzel Washington thriller Unstoppable.

Lyndsy Fonseca starred as Alexandra ‘Alex’ Udinov in spy series Nikita, played Dave Lizewski’s love interest Katie Deauxma in hit comic book movie Kick-Ass and its sequel, and appeared as Ted Mosby’s future daughter in much-loved comedy How I Met Your Mother. Other TV credits include playing Dylan Mayfair in Desperate Housewives, as well as roles in House, Heroes, Big Love, Malcolm in the Middle and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.

Lyndsy and Dylan join a line-up that already includes special guests such as Falling Skies‘ Drew Roy and Connor Jessup, Red Dwarf’s Robert Llewellyn, Once Upon A Time’s Meghan Ory, top voice actor Wendee Lee, leading videogame producer Hideo Baba and Henry Winkler, aka The Fonz.
