Percy Jackson opens Hall H again

The show's floor activation returns at titan scale: visitors enter through Poseidon's trident and pick a path where it branches into its three prongs, following Percy (Walker Scobell), Annabeth (Leah Sava Jeffries), or Thalia (Tamara Smart).

Hulu Animayhem feeds the Gaslamp

Hulu Animayhem goes food-first this year. The Planet Express building returns to Comic-Con alongside Bobby Hill's new Robata Chane venture from the King of the Hill revival, with themed offerings like Fry's 100 Days of Cold Brew and yakitori inspired by Bobby's restaurant. Guests can hunt Easter eggs through immersive environments built around fan-favorite storylines, and the Animayhem booth (#4229) stocks new merchandise and SDCC exclusives from Bob's Burgers, King of the Hill, Futurama, Family Guy, and more.

FX joins the food fight with AHS: 13 Flavors, a stunt serving sinister sweets inspired by each season of Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story ahead of season 13's September arrival.

What this means for fans

Disney's Comic-Con strategy is unchanged from what worked in 2025: lead with Percy Jackson for the Disney+ faithful, then let Hulu's adult animation brands own Saturday. For fans making the trip, the practical notes are the Thursday morning Hall H line for Percy Jackson news (a season 3 date seems likely), the Gaslamp food crawl that needs no badge, and booth #4229 for exclusives. Comic-Con runs July 23 through 25 in San Diego.
