Friday, September 30, London: ReedPop is today excited to reveal that Smosh funnyman Damien Haas and Futurama voice actor Maurice LaMarche will be attending MCM Comic Con x EGX at ExCeL London from October 25 - 27.

One of the first channels on YouTube, Smosh has established itself as a comedy powerhouse since joining the platform in 2005. After almost two decades of comedy skits and improv, the channel has grown to 26.7 million subscribers and recruited former Disney stars like Damien Haas to their cast, who ReedPop is pleased to welcome to this October’s show.

ReedPop is also pleased to welcome another Futurama cast member to the MCM Comic Con x EGX October lineup. Created by legendary cartoonist Matt Groening in 1999, Futurama follows the employees of the interplanetary delivery service, Planet Express, as they navigate wacky adventures across the galaxy.

At the convention, attendees will be able to meet…

• Damien Haas: Best known as a core cast member of Smosh, the YouTube comedy channel with over 26 million subscribers, Damien also has a prolific acting and voice acting career. His first big role was as Damien Johanssen in The Disney Channel’s So Random!, and he has since gone on to lend his voice to numerous video games and TV shows. His most recent role is as the lead character, Laios in the 2024 animated Netflix Series, Delicious in Dungeon.
• Maurice LaMarche: Maurice is the voice of Zapp Brannigan’s downtrodden sidekick, Kif Kroker, soap acting robot, Calculon, and belligerent alien news anchor, Morbo, in the classic animated sci-fi sitcom, Futurama.

Maurice is also recognised for his voice acting work in films such as Space Jam, Frozen, Zootopia and Wreck it Ralph.
