Actor Tye Sheridan is coming to Manila for a major comic convention.
The 21-year-old actor starred in the sci-fi film “Ready Player One,” which was released in March. He also played Cyclops in 2016’s “X-Men: Apocalypse.”
Sheridan is one of the guests for AsiaPOP Comicon, along with actor Finn Jones, who plays the title role in Netflix’s “Iron Fist.” Jones is also known for his role as Loras Tyrell in “Game of Thrones.”
Sheridan replaces another “Iron Fist” and “Game of Thrones” actor, Jessica Henwick, who pulled out of the commitment due to “unforeseen circumstances.”
Previous guests at the convention include “Arrow” actor Colton Haynes, “X-Men: Apocalypse” star Nicholas Hoult and “Stranger Things” cast members Millie Bobby Brown, Joe Keery, Dacre Montgomery, Noah Schnapp and Sadie Sink.
The convention will be held from July 27 to 29 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City. /ra
