Also at this convention, of interest to SF fans, will be Mark Goddard from Lost in Space and Van Williams of The Green Hornet. Roy Thinnes starred as David Vincent in the Invaders, and as Roger Collins in the 1992 Dark Shadows remake.

Tron animated series developing for the Disney Channel
by Doc on Mar.04, 2010, under Television
Disney announced at their upfront presentation that a Tron animated series is in development for the Disney Channel, and is to be aimed at 6-14 year olds, to appear following the release of Tron: Legacy. And prior to release there may also be a 10-part micro-series on Disney XD. Almost 30 years have passed, and now they smell franchise…I’ve even heard that they will dress up a WDW monorail to look a bit like a lightcycle. Also on the docket: An animated series based on The Avengers, courtesy of their Marvel acquisition.
