Mr. T, Dafne Keen, Ron Perlman, Nick Apostolides, Angela Sant'albano Added To FAN EXPO Philadelphia


(MENAFN- ForPressRelease) Mr. T (Rocky III, The A-Team), Dafne Keen (Deadpool & Wolverine, Logan), Ron Perlman (Hellboy, Sons of Anarchy) and the Resident Evil: Requiem gaming voice duo of Nick Apostolides and Angela Sant'Albano are the latest strong additions to the standout celebrity lineup at FAN EXPO Philadelphia, set for May 29-31 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center in Center City.

Mr. T, born Laurence Tureaud, rose to superstardom for his portrayal of boxer“Clubber Lang” in Rocky III opposite Sylvester Stallone in 1982. He parlayed that a year later into the co-starring role of“B. A. Baracus” throughout the four-year run of the action series The A-Team, and has been a cultural icon ever since in both acting and professional wrestling, competing in Wrestlemania.

Perlman, perhaps best known for the title role in the Hellboy films, is one of Hollywood's most prolific actors, appearing in more than 250 films and TV series. FAN EXPO fans also recognize him readily from Sons of Anarchy, Hand of God, Beauty and the Beast, Blade II and many others, including the current BBC series The Capture.

Keen caught the attention of fans internationally in the 2024 feature Deadpool & Wolverine, co-starring opposite Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman as“Laura,” a reprisal of her role in 2017's Logan with Reynolds and Patrick Stewart. She had the starring role in last year's Whistle after a three-year run fronting the HBO series His Dark Materials.

Apostolides and Sant'Albano voice the characters of“Leon S. Kennedy” and“Grace Ashcroft,” respectively, in the horror video game Resident Evil: Requiem, released this year. Apostolides has done extensive video game work in numerous previous iterations of the RE series as well as titles as diverse as Madden NFL 21, The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit and Monster Hunter: World. Sant'Albano has had live acting roles in series like Industry, I Hate Suzie and the feature film Lilly opposite Patricia Clarkson.
