Director Guillermo del Toro is bringing together the creative team behind his acclaimed dark fantasy 'Pan's Labyrinth' for a special retrospective at San Diego Comic-Con, marking two decades since the film's world premiere at Cannes. The panel will feature del Toro alongside cinematographer Guillermo Navarro, lead actress Ivana Baquero, and actor Doug Jones, moderated by Collider's Steven Weintraub, to discuss the film's production and lasting resonance with audiences.

The 2006 film, which claimed three Academy Awards including cinematography and art direction, continues to be recognised as one of del Toro's most significant achievements with a 95% critical score on Rotten Tomatoes. Ahead of its theatrical re-release in October 2026—now available in 4K, 3D, and HDR formats overseen by del Toro himself—the Comic-Con gathering offers fans the opportunity to hear firsthand accounts from those who created the dark fairy tale that has garnered 106 awards across various accolades.
