HitFix (www.hitfix.com), the fastest-growing entertainment news brand in the US, is teaming up with Lucasfilm and Star Wars Rebels (www.starwars.com/rebels) to bring the Force to San Diego Comic-Con International Wednesday night.

An annual Wednesday night tradition since 2009, HitFix began the kick-off event for members of the entertainment industry from around the world to catch up before the convention officially opens its doors on Thursday, July 24. Held at the Hotel Solamar in San Diego’s Gaslamp Quarter, this is now one of the most anticipated events on the Comic-Con calendar.

“As HitFix has grown, so has our Comic-Con presence,” said Jen Sargent, HitFix CEO. “The kick-off party has become so popular that our staff is asked about the event year-round. We are very pleased to partner on this year’s event with a show as highly anticipated as Star Wars Rebels.”

“We are thrilled to be partnering with HitFix at Comic-Con this year to kick off a variety of great activities and events for Star Wars Rebels,” said Lucasfilm’s EVP and Head of Production and Development, Tony To. “Star Wars has a long history with Comic-Con dating back to 1976, and we’re really excited to be carrying on that tradition with tonight’s Star Wars Rebels kick-off party.”

Star Wars Rebels is a new 3D animated adventure set in the era between Star Wars: Episode III Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. It debuts this Fall on Disney XD.

HitFix’s premier editorial team will once again cover Comic-Con from one corner of the San Diego Convention Center to another.
