Actress Keke Palmer will moderate.
We're just about two and a half months away from the opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art here in Southern California, and today the museum announced that it will be returning for another panel at San Diego Comic-Con for the 2026 iteration of the massive pop-culture event. More details below.
What's happening:
- The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art in Los Angeles has announced that it will return for another panel discussion at San Diego Comic-Con for the 2026 iteration of the event.
- The one-hour panel will take place at 4:45 PM on Thursday, July 23 in Hall H.

Actress Keke Palmer (Nope) will moderate.
- On the SDCC 2026 exhibit hall floor, attendees will also find a Lucas Museum of Narrative Art booth (#2913-G) with a selection of merchandise including t-shirts with Star Wars vehicles and characters featured, a Modal Nodes guitar pick, a tote bag, and an "I Heart Lucas Museum" pin.
- The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art also hosted a panel in Hall H at last year's San Diego Comic-Con, complete with an appearance by the museum's co-founder George Lucas himself. You can read my recap of that event from 2025.
