Get ready, Birmingham — MCM Comic Con is back at the NEC from 28–30 November 2025, and this year’s guest lineup just got even more exciting. ReedPop has officially confirmed that acclaimed performer Shala Nyx will be joining fans for the weekend, bringing her celebrated video game and TV roles to life on the convention floor.
A Multiverse of Roles
Best known for her captivating performance as Sciel in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, Shala Nyx embodies the calm yet fearless warrior who quickly became a fan-favourite. Her voice and motion capture work have also graced some of the most beloved titles in gaming — including Baldur’s Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, and Assassin’s Creed Mirage.
Outside of gaming, Nyx has made waves on television, appearing alongside Danny Dyer in EastEnders as Alanagh, and featuring in hit shows such as My American Family and Casualty.

Fans will have the chance to meet Shala Nyx in person across all three days of the MCM Birmingham Comic Con weekend. She’ll be available for photo ops, autographs, and meet-and-greet sessions — a perfect opportunity for fans to connect with one of the industry’s rising stars.
Nyx will join a stellar lineup of guests from the worlds of gaming, film, and TV — making MCM Birmingham Comic Con one of the UK’s most anticipated pop culture events this year.
