Good news for all the Marvel fans who have been tuning in to Netflix for updates on Marvel’s Iron Fist and Marvel’s Luke Cage: Netflix will be returning to AsiaPop Comicon (APCC), one of the biggest pop culture gatherings in Manila, from July 27-29, 2018 and they’ll be bringing the stars of the show with them!
According to our dear friends at Netflix Philippines, the #NetflixAPCC experience at the SMX Convention Center will be inspired by and designed especially for Pinoy fans. With bigger experiences, surprise guests, a sneak peek at what’s coming to the entertainment service provider, and special screenings just for fans attending this year’s convention.
Here are three things to watch out for:

Head over to Hall N because Marvel’s Luke Cage series star, Mike Colter (who plays Luke Cage), joins Cheo Hodari Coker and this season’s villain – Mustafa Shakir (Bushmaster), to answer fans’ burning questions from season two. Finn Jones, who stars as Danny Rand/Iron Fist on Marvel’s Iron Fist, will join Raven Metzner (Sleepy Hollow, Falling Skies) to tease the upcoming season of the show.
Fun Fact: Marvel’s Iron Fist and Marvel’s Luke Cage are produced by Marvel Television in association with ABC Studios for Netflix.
2. Netflix Loves Anime
Of course, there’s always room for anime at the APCC! Netflix will be going behind the scenes with the creators of Castlevania (executive producer Adi Shankar) and Godzilla: Planet of the Monsters (TOHO producer Takashi Yoshizawa) to learn how these series come to life with a special surprise guest.
3. The Netflix Experience: Destination Fun
