Phoenix Comicon will host Alyson Hannigan and Alexis Denisof in a rare appearance together in what is likely the only US pop-culture and comic book convention appearance for 2015. The seasoned actress is probably best known to sci-fi fans for her portrayal of Willow Rosenberg on Joss Whedon’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the spinoff series Angel. She has also made guest and voice appearances on television shows including Veronica Mars, That ‘70s Show, The Simpsons, and American Dad!, and starred as Lily Aldrin on the CBS hit sitcom How I Met Your Mother. As a film actress, Alyson took on the role of the amorous Michelle Flaherty in the American Pie series.
Adding considerable clout to the 2015 guest list at Phoenix Comicon is television and film actor Alexis Denisof. Alexis is known for many of his roles in Joss Whedon productions including Wesley Wyndam-Price on Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel, Senator Daniel Perrin on Dollhouse, Benedick in Much Ado About Nothing, and The Other in The Avengers with a reprisal as The Other in Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Most recently, Alexis has been seen on the television series H+, How I Met Your Mother, Grimm, and Finding Carter.
Phoenix Comicon is the premier pop-culture event of the southwest. Join us May 28–31, 2015 at the Phoenix Convention Center. For membership information and all of the latest details, visit www.phoenixcomicon.com.
