As always, Sean Astin enjoys meeting with his fans at comic conventions, chatting about his roles, giving advice on acting, signing autographs and taking table photos.
Sean is ready and eager to start the day!
Since Billy Boyd was at this event, they spent some time visiting at each other's tables.
Billy tugs on Sean's scarf to get his attention. It doesn't work.
The second day at Comic Con featured a few Close Encounters of the Star Trek: The Next Generation kind. [Unless otherwise noted by copyright marks or credits, photos by me.]
Gates McFadden ("Dr. Beverly Crusher") stopped by and talked about her theater company, Ensemble Studio Theatre of LA. She was excited to have her photo taken with Sean!
Getting a photo of Patrick Stewart ("Captain John Luc Picard") was harder. He was surrounded by handlers and guards protecting him from stray cameras. I did manage to get a shot when he stopped by Sean's table to say "hello!"
Here are some of the videos of Sean I took at the Toronto Comic Con on March 9-10, 2013.
The first one is a portion of Sean's Q&A session. He talks about his upcoming roles in The Call and Santa Switch, how he got a part as an elf in The Witches of Oz with Billy Boyd, Billy's band Beecake, and does a silent pass for his Harlem Shake video attempt!
Sean leaves a video message for sleeping Lillian, who is a big fan of Special Agent Oso.
Sean tries to answer the question about how much Sam's backpack weighed.
Sean will be a guest at the Toronto Comic Con at the Metro Toronto Convention Center, March 9-10, 2013, presented by Fan Expo Canada.
Also appearing are the cast of "Star Trek: The Next Generation," including Patrick Stewart, Jonathan Frakes, LeVar Burton, Michael Dorn, Marina Sirtis, Brent Spiner and Gates McFadden! Be still my heart! <3
