That time is almost upon is. San Diego Comic-Con 2025 is almost here, and next week at this time, io9 will be among the 100,000-plus fans descending on San Diego for four days of pop culture excitement. All the best movies, TV, comics, games, toys, anime, you name it, and it’ll be at Comic-Con.
Which is both the best and worst thing about the convention. The worst thing is that there’s so much going on, there’s no way you could come close to seeing or doing everything you want to. The best thing, however, is that you can very easily tailor your entire experience to only the things that make you happy. For us, that’s in large part major movies and TV shows. And while Marvel Studios won’t be gracing Hall H this year, several other films and shows are doing just that, along with DC Studios and more.
So what’s cool? What’s worth looking forward to? Here are 15 panels we’re most looking forward to at San Diego Comic-Con 2025.
Sneak Peek: Lucas Museum of Narrative Art
On the surface this one seems pretty basic. A tease of a museum? Who cares, right? Well, it’s George Lucas’ museum. About movies. And he’s on the panel, making his first trip to Comic-Con ever. And Guillermo del Toro is on the panel. And Doug Chiang. And Queen Latifah is moderating. Um, wow, what a package.

Coyote vs. Acme
First it was canceled. Then it came back. And now, for the first time ever, the general public is going to see what all the fuss is about. We cannot wait.
