Alexander Skarsgård is listed but not in bold letters. The panel WILL be moderated by EW’s Tim Stack.
I will share info as I piece together more.
I, B, will being making my yearly pilgrimage to San Diego to pay homage to the the show that has brought so many of us together… and embrace my fangirl/geekiness at the sametime. There will be occasional live tweeting and sharing of my con experience on the VikingWenches accounts.
