20th Century Fox skipping San Diego Comic-Con over piracy concerns

April 29, 2016 by Gary Collinson

If you’re attending the San Diego Comic-Con this July and hoping to get a glimpse of some of 20th Century Fox’s upcoming projects, you’ll be disappointed to hear that the studio won’t be presenting in Hall H this year due to concerns about piracy.

According to The Wrap, Fox has made the decision as it feels it cannot prevent leaks of its exclusive footage and trailers (last year, the footage shown for both Deadpool and X-Men: Apocalypse made its way online within days of the con). The report also suggests that Fox’s upcoming movies such as Assassin’s Creed, Wolverine 3 and Maze Runner: The Death Cure are too far down the release schedule for the footage to be finished.

It has also been speculated that Walt Disney Pictures will be giving Hall H a miss this year, although a rep for Disney has denied those rumours.
