Twisted Metal & The Continental: Peacock Reveals SDCC 2023 Plans
Here's a look at what Peacock has in store to preview Twisted Metal and The Continental: From The World Of John Wick during SDCC 2023.
With the streamer's live-action take on the video game classic hitting on July 27th and the prequel spinoff from the mega-popular "John Wick" franchise blasting its way onto our screens in September 2023, it's no surprise that Peacock would be previewing Twisted Metal and The Continental: From The World Of John Wick during this year's San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) 2023. With the SAG-AFTRA & WGA strikes still ongoing, the focus of what you're about to see is on a fan interactive experience as well as screenings and first-look behind-the-scenes featurettes.
Here's a look at what Peacock is unleashing upon SDCC later this week when it comes to Twisted Metal & The Continental: From The World Of John Wick:
