As Hollywood continues to grapple with the impact of a writers strike and looming actors strike, the standoff is creating new problems for Comic-Con, one of the biggest annual conventions in San Diego.
Several of the entertainment industry's biggest companies have now decided to skip panels in Hall H, which is known as the biggest attraction and longest wait of the convention.
Disney, Marvel, Lucas Films, HBO, Sony, Netflix and Universal have announced they will be pulling out from Hall H presentations, Variety reported on Friday.
Some of the convention's biggest announcements and surprises are traditionally revealed during Hall H panels.
