ReedPop are excited to announce that Laurence Rickard, star of Ghosts and Horrible Histories, will be coming to MCM Comic Con this October in London. He will be appearing across all three days from Friday 24th – Sunday 26th October.
Laurence Rickard will be most recently known for his roles in Ghosts as the prehistoric caveman Robin, and the head of Tudor nobleman Humphrey. In addition to this, he co-wrote and starred in Yonderland, bringing to life Scribe Elder Ho-Tan, the voice of Geoff, and Wizard Bradley. He will also be recognised from his part of the core ensemble cast in Horrible Histories, a series which Laurence also co-wrote. His talent for multi-character performances and screenwriting also shines in the historical comedy Bill, where he co-wrote and played eight different roles.
Laurence will be available for photo ops and autographs for all three days of MCM Comic Con October. Saturday, Weekend and VIP ticket holders will be able to join Laurence in a free panel exploring ‘Behind the Scenes of Ghosts’ at the Main Stage on Saturday 25 October, at 10:45am. This panel will have the option for prior reservation, with reservations opening 24 September.
