Sean flew into Toronto last week to begin filming the pilot for Guillermo Del Toro's Fox series The Strain. But before he began, he took a side trip to the 
Montreal Comic Con. 
Update: 2nd video added.
(Similarly, this weekend he will be at the 
Ohio Comic Con in Columbus Friday and Saturday!)
Here are some pics from Sean's visit to Montreal, plus a couple of video interviews. First, the 
best pic of the Montreal Comic Con!

| Then it was time to get down to the business of signing autographs. | 
|  | 
| Sean Astin and Margot Kidder interviewed each other on CHOM 97.7 radio. |

  | 
| Time for photo ops! | 
|  | 
| That evening Sean ran a 10K Night Race, his time a zippy 54:29. Sean is training for the Chicago Marathon on October 13.

| On Sunday, Sean did a Q&A session. | 
|  | 
| A moody shot | 
|  | 
| He checked his iPhone so he could show the audience photos from the night run! | 
|  | 
| Not sure what is going on here, but they're having fun! | 
|  | 
| Back to the autograph table. | 
|  | 
| And more photo ops | 
|  | 
| Sean was interviewed by Elysia Bryan-Baynes of Global News. | 
Watch the video here, Sean appears at ~1:50.

| "No one will notice if I take this with me, will they??" | 
"It's gonna take about a week to get that smile off her face." LOL! Yep, that's the Sean-effect. ;) Though I think her colleague is greatly underestimating the situation here. About a month is more like it.
