According to The Wrap, 20th Century Fox has decided not to attend San Diego Comic Con this year over piracy concerns. That means there will be no footage from Michael Fassbender's Assassin's Creed or any announcements regarding The Wolverine 3 or Deadpool 2.
With footage from Hall H panels generally leaking online just a few hours after the presentation, Fox feels that there's no way to combat overzealous fans and so they'll just sit out SDCC's grand showcase altogether. The Wrap also reports that (gasp) Disney and Marvel are also considering skipping SDCC this year. Disney usually skips SDCC when there's a D23 Expo in the same year but that's not the case in 2016.
The Wrap reached out to a Disney rep for confirmation on their sources tip but was told Disney was not considering such a movie. Still, don't be surprised if there's an announcement made sometime between now and July.
Is this the end of SDCC, at least for the big film studios? Industry analysts have long been critical of how buzz from the annual fan expo impacts a movie's box office performance. There have been several, recent big-budget sci-films that "won Comic-Con" and went on to flop or just barely break even. Perhaps studio execs are taking notice and deciding that the money spent on competing at SDCC can be better spent elsewhere?
传20世纪福斯退出ComicCon主展会起因盗摄频现 《刺客信条》等影片不再露面
0世纪福斯影业今年或将不会在圣迭戈漫展的H大厅中推介其电影，这意味着《刺客信条》、《金刚狼3》、《移动迷宫：死亡解药》等影片都不会现身漫展，起因则是福斯方面担心等影片物料遭到盗录。
《刺客信条》、《金刚狼3》等影片或许都不会在今年的圣迭戈漫展上露面了。
　　时光网讯 据外媒The Wrap报道，20世纪福斯影业今年将不会在圣迭戈漫展(San Diego Comic-Con)的H大厅中推介其电影——这也意味着《刺客信条》、《金刚狼3》、《移动迷宫：死亡解药》等影片都不会现身此次漫展。而这一切的起因则是福斯方面担心其无法阻止于漫展中为粉丝独家放送的影片预告、片段等物料遭到盗摄并流出。
The Wrap称，消息的来源为参与做出此决定的人士。目前福斯方面拒绝对此消息做出回应，圣迭戈漫展也未对此事做出评论。另一位接近福斯的人士则表示，福斯还是会参与圣迭戈漫展的一些小型展会，福斯与梦工场动画合作的《巨魔》就会现身漫展。该人士还表示，实际上《金刚狼3》、《刺客信条》等多部影片的物料仍旧尚未完成或者影片距离上映还有很长一段时间。不过，在今年四月中旬举行的CinemaCon上，《刺客信条》还曾放出过一支片段。　　第一位消息人士还透露，迪士尼也在考虑退出今年圣迭戈漫展的主展厅活动，迪士尼方面同样拒绝做出回应。值得一提的是，迪士尼旗下的漫威电影去年就缺席了圣迭戈漫展，不知今年能否再度回归。
去年的圣迭戈漫展上，《死侍》、《X特遣队》等影片的盗摄视频流出就闹得沸沸扬扬
　　去年的圣迭戈漫展上华纳的《X特遣队》与福斯《X战警：天启》首次曝光的预告片以及《死侍》的首支片段均遭遇盗摄，并在网络上广泛传播。《X特遣队》最终干脆放出高清版，对粉丝们的偷录行为妥协。
对于此种盗录行为，圣迭戈漫展的市场及公共关系主管David Glanzer曾明确表示：“显然我们对此非常失望，这种盗摄行为不仅伤害了漫展与电影公司之间的关系，也伤害到每一个尊重漫展规则的参与者。”但现实是，在智能设备及摄影器材如此普及的今天，如何保证在场的6000人中没有盗录行为实在太难了。
