MCM Expo is delighted to announce that the cast of the smash hit US series “Warehouse 13” will be attending the forthcoming London event in October (Saturday 24th & Sunday 25th).

“Warehouse 13” will premiere in the UK on SCI FI this September, with a special double-bill on Tuesday 8th at 9pm.

Faye Harcourt. Head of Marketing & Communications, NBC Universal Global Networks UK, commented; “We’re thrilled to partner with the London MCM Expo in support of “Warehouse 13”, which already has a cult UK following, formed in anticipation of its UK premiere on the SCI FI channel. We’ve had a tremendous amount of success this year with equally celebrated series such as “Dollhouse” and we are confident that the fans will embrace “Warehouse 13” with equal fervour. The Expo is an ideal platform for viewers to hear more about the series overall and to discover first hand why it’s pipped to overtake the success of other iconic hits such as “Battlestar Galactica” and “Eureka” on our US sister channel, SyFy.”

The show marries “X-Files” with “Indiana Jones” through the adventures of two Secret Service agents who, after saving the life of the US President, find themselves abruptly transferred to a massive, top-secret storage facility in windswept South Dakota; Warehouse 13. The isolated building houses every strange artefact, mysterious relic, fantastical object and supernatural souvenir ever collected by the U.S. government – from possessed masks to Agatha Christie’s typewriter.

Warehouse caretaker Artie (Saul Rubinek) charges agents Pete Lattimer (Eddie McClintock, “Bones”, “Desperate Housewives”) and Myka Bering (Joanne Kelly, “Jack Hunter”, “Vanished”) with chasing down reports of supernatural and paranormal activity in search of new objects to cache at the facility, as well as helping him to control the warehouse itself.

The series is executive produced by Jack Kenny (“The Book of Daniel”) and David Simkins (“Dresden Files”). Jace Alexander (“Burn Notice”, “Rescue Me”) is co-executive producer and director of the pilot; and Stephen Surjik (Monk, Burn Notice) is producer/director of the series.
