PopConME, which will be held at the Dubai Exhibition Centre, Expo City Dubai, in collaboration with the Dubai Festivals and Retail Establishment (DFRE), Speedy Comics, and Alanza Trading, will feature workshops, movie screenings, and Cosplay gaming competitions.

As reported by Arab News, Deputy CEO of the Speedy Comics Group Amer Rashed Al-Farooq said, “We are excited to introduce PopConME to Dubai. I have been a fan of comic books since I was a child and have been entrenched in the community from an early age. This is a dream come true for a true geek like me. I want this convention to have everything and more my geek heart desires.”

Speaking about Harington’s work front, he is set to star in Blood for Dust alongside Scoot McNairy and Josh Lucas later this year. In the movie, he plays Ricky, a weapons dealer who reunites with his old friend and colleague Cliff (McNairy), a down-on-his-luck traveling salesman, which is scheduled to start filming next month.
