Zachary Levi to Host Syfy's LIVE FROM COMIC-CON

Zachary Levi has been tapped to host the second year of Syfy's LIVE FROM COMIC-CON. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Levi, who will be replacing Will Arnett, will also be the co-producer of the show through his Middle Man Productions Banner.

Levi is no stranger to the Comic-Con, thanks to his Nerd HQ venture. However, due to his new commitment, it was announced on Friday that he would not be able to host Nerd HQ at this year's Con. In response, he said, "I am beyond thrilled to be collaborating with Syfy during such a powerful year for their network. As always, we are hard at work trying to bring the fans the most entertaining experience and content possible. My hope is that this year in San Diego will be one of the most memorable ever."

Heather Olander, Syfy's Senior VP Alternative Development and Production stated, "We are excited to be back in business with Zac as we prepare for this year's Live From Comic-Con. Not only is he an immensely talented multi-hyphenate, but he's a true fan himself and a Con favorite. With Zac as our host, we are guaranteed to bring a fan-first perspective to our coverage, providing an all-access inside look at breaking news, celebrity interviews and the on-the-ground interactions that make San Diego Comic-Con the premiere genre event!"
