Throughout the weekend, attendees can look forward to autograph signings, professional photo sessions, and live Q&A panels where stars will discuss both their past work and upcoming projects.
Genevieve O’Reilly joins an already star-studded line-up, which includes Dirty Dancing icon Jennifer Grey – famed for her role as Frances “Baby” Houseman — and Ferris Bueller’s Day Off actress Jeanie Bueller.
More guests are expected to be announced as the event draws closer.
