Heroes, Aliens, and Fanboys Take Orlando by Storm
2007 Florida Extravaganza FX Show
Stars of NBC's new hit series, Heroes, actors from the movie Aliens, and the cast from the upcoming summer release, Fanboys, are joining what has become a spectacular line-up of celebrity guests at the 2007 Florida Extravaganza. In its 18th year, the FX Show is an Orlando staple. FX opens its doors on January 26-28th at its new location, the Orange County Convention Center.
The Florida Extravaganza (FX) is a multi-genre pop-culture convention, and the largest event of its kind in the world. Not only does it bring you amazing celebrity guests, FX also hosts the largest indoor toy show in the southeast, a comic book convention with famous guest artists, sci-fi and horror memorabilia, a doll and bear show, anime, gaming and so much more! The entire family will be entertained for a weekend and it costs less than one ticket to Disney!
Appearing from Heroes are Hayden Panettiere, who plays the invincible cheerleader, Claire Bennett, and Zachary Quinto who portrays the anti-hero, Sylar, in this skyrocketing series. Joining them from Aliens are Michael Biehn, who played Corporal Hicks, and the sci-fi veteran Lance Henriksen, who portrayed the android Bishop.
The cast of the new comedy release, Fanboys, is an exciting addition to the stellar line-up. In this hilarious script, four guys from the Midwest drive across the country to honor the wish of their dying friend: to watch Star Wars: Episode I -- The Phantom Menace at George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch before the movie's worldwide release. Those appearing from the incredible cast include; Kristen Bell (Veronica Mars), Sam Huntington (Superman Returns), Dan Fogler (Number 13), Jay Baruchel (Million Dollar Baby), Chris Marquette (The Girl Next Door), William Katt (The Greatest American Hero), and Jaime King (Sin City).
