In Full Swing
AsiaPOP Comicon Manila 2018 (APCC Manila 2018)— slated on July 27 to 29 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City—is in full swing to make the convention one heck of a thrill ride for its thousands of fans across the region.
Getting the adrenaline pumping is APCC’s newest addition: no less than Tye Sheridan, the ambitious Gunter Wade Watts from Steven Spielberg’s Hollywood box-office blockbuster, Ready Player One.
Tye Sheridan, best known for playing lead mutant Cyclops in X-Men: Apocalypse, made his film debut in the critically-acclaimed The Tree of Life, and has also starred in drama films such as Mud, Joe, and The Stanford Prison Experiment. He will reprise his role as Cyclops on the next X-Men movie, X-Men: Dark Phoenix, which is set to be released later this year.
Sheridan will grace the convention together with Finn Jones, the titular character in the popular Marvel series Iron Fist and Loras Tyrell in Game of Thrones.
Joining headliners Finn Jones and Tye Sheridan – is another lineup of awesome creative artists composed of Artgerm, Amanda Visell, Michelle Valigura and global cosplayers Vera Chimera and Yugana Senshi Uon.
Catch them showcase their talents and works at the biggest pop culture gathering in the region. Tickets are now available for purchase at all SM Tickets outlets, with ticket prices PhP 650 (1-day pass), PhP 950 (2-day pass), and PhP 1,150 (3-day pass).
