Alan Tudyk has just been announced at a guest for next weekend’s Australian GenCon event in Brisbane, Australia. Due to filming issues, Battlestar Galactica guests James Callis and Jamie Bamber are unable to attend and a last minute guest booking was required.
The GenCon event runs from Thursday 3rd to Sunday 6th of July. It is yet to be announced what days Alan Tudyk will be at the event.
On the plus side, Gen Con? Australia and Hub Productions have been working furiously to find replacements for the show. And replacements we have found in the appearance of two awesome guests namely Paul “Carson Beckett” McGillion from Stargate Atlantis and Alan “Wash” Tudyk from Serenity/Firefly.
