According to MegaCon, it will be the first time the Howards make their a convention appearance together.
The sons of veteran actor Rance Howard, Ron and Clint first achieved success as child actors appearing in shows such as “Happy Days.” Ron’s other major acting role includes Opie Taylor in “The Andy Griffith Show,” with Clint also making an appearance in the sitcom.
In 1977, Ron Howard made his directorial debut with the comedy “Grand Theft Auto.” He went on to become one of Hollywood’s most respected filmmakers with movies like “Cocoon,” “Apollo 13″ and “A Beautiful Mind.” Clint Howard has been cast in many of his brother’s films, such as “Parenthood,” “Cinderella Man” and “Backdraft.”
Bryce Dallas Howard continues her family’s legacy, with acting credits that include “The Village,” the Jurassic World series, and “Lady in the Water.” She’s gained recent achievement for her work behind the camera by directing episodes of the Star Wars television series “The Mandalorian” and “The Book of Boba Fett.”
MegaCon is one of the largest annual pop culture conventions in the southeastern United States, celebrating comic books, gaming, movies, film, animation, cosplay and all things nerd culture. Last year, as many as 180,000 people attended the show.
Other actors announced so far include Matt Smith, Alicia Silverstone, Dolph Lundgren and Millie Bobby Brown.
