MEET THE STARS OF 2022!
2022 was the ultimate CELEB-ration with this fantastic line-up of celebrity guests! Check out who came to Abu Dhabi in March 2022:
CHARLIE COX
Most known for being the face behind the masked vigilante in the shows Daredevil, Defenders and a cameo appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home, Charlie Cox won us over way before in his other roles in the Theory of Everything as Jonathan Hellyer Jones, Owen Sleater in Broadwalk Empire and Tristan Thorn in Stardust.
BARRY KEOGHAN
An award-winning actor, Barry Keoghan was featured in some of the biggest films and TV shows of the decade. He made us cry when George Mills died in Dunkirk, captured our minds as Druig in Eternals, left us with horror in its purest form as Martin in The Killing of a Sacred Deer and now excited as he appears in The Batman movie. 🦇
NATHALIE EMMANUEL
Khaleesi’s bestie arrived at MEFCC! Fans brushed up on their High Valyrian as she took a break from the Fast and Furious big screens to join us at MEFCC.
Fans immortalized their moment with her with exclusive meet and greets at the show. Dracarys out! 🔥🔥🔥
MICHAEL ROOKER
You know him as Yondu (or as Mary Poppins ☂), leader of the Ravagers, wielder of the Yaka arrow and ‘’daddy’’ to Star-Lord! The Milano spaceship charted its course for Abu Dhabi as we welcomed Michael Rooker at MEFCC 2022! ⚡️
KEVIN CONROY
The Bat Signal is visible on the night sky 🦇
