Intergalactic Friendship Panel: Star Trek x Doctor Who
Saturday, July 27, 5:30 – 6:30 PM, Room 6A
Sci-fi fans were treated to the ultimate crossover moment at San Diego Comic-Con, where Star Trek met Doctor Who in an epic Intergalactic Friendship Panel on Saturday, July 27, from 5:30-6:30 PM, in Room 6A.
This exclusive creator-to-creator conversation featured Alex Kurtzman, the mastermind behind the Star Trek universe, and Russell T Davies, the driving force behind the Doctor Who Whoniverse. Together, they delved into the art of storytelling across alternative universes while celebrating the boundless power of friendship.
Moderated by TVLine’s Keisha Hatchett, the panel was a can’t-miss moment. As an added bonus, every attendee walked away with a limited-edition Doctor Who x Star Trek poster designed by the talented Dusty Abell. It was a fusion of worlds, stories, and fandoms like no other.
