Star Wars and pop culture fans in Florida are in for a treat this year — Diego Luna has officially been announced as a guest for MegaCon Orlando 2026.
The news comes from an official reveal by the event organizers, who confirmed the Rogue One star will be attending one of the largest fan conventions in the United States later this year. This marks a major opportunity for fans to meet one of the franchise’s most beloved actors in person.
A Beloved Star Returns to Fan Events
Diego Luna is best known in the Star Wars universe for his role as Cassian Andor — the Rebel operative at the heart of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. His performance was widely praised for adding depth and emotion to the franchise’s cinematic canon, helping make Rogue One one of the most acclaimed films of the modern era.
Luna’s continued popularity with fans has translated into multiple appearances at conventions and fan events over the years. But his attendance at MegaCon Orlando is set to be one of the biggest Star Wars-related celebrity appearances of 2026.
What to Expect at MegaCon Orlando
MegaCon Orlando takes place annually and draws tens of thousands of fans of comics, movies, TV, gaming, and broader pop culture. The convention regularly features high-profile guests, panels, autograph sessions, and photo ops.
With Diego Luna added to the guest list, Star Wars fans will likely see:
- Photo ops with Diego Luna (Cassian Andor)
- Autograph sessions
- Panels or Q&A opportunities

These events give fans a rare chance to meet the actor behind one of Star Wars’ most compelling characters and ask questions about the franchise, his role, and his career.
How This Fits Into the Star Wars Landscape
Diego Luna’s star power within the Star Wars fan community has only grown since Rogue One. He later returned to the franchise with the acclaimed Disney+ series Andor, which further expanded Cassian’s backstory and showed the gritty beginnings of the Rebellion.
His appearance at MegaCon Orlando comes at a time when Star Wars event culture has been trending upward, with fans eager to connect with actors from both the classic and modern eras of the franchise.
