Serkis has done a variety of acting, animation and voice work in the world of motion capture, with roles like "Gollum" in The Lord of the Rings trilogy and The Hobbit, the lead character "Caesar" in the reboot of Planet of the Apes and several Star Wars trilogy films, among more than 100 acting credits.

Gill appeared as "Yasmin Khan" on the iconic BBC series "Doctor Who" from 2018-2022. She first gained attention of audiences in the British soap opera "Hollyoaks," appearing on the show for three seasons and more than 240 episodes as "Phoebe."

Tate portrayed "Donna Noble" during several seasons of "Doctor Who," also gaining fame as "Nellie Bertram" in the NBC hit "The Office."

Best known for her role as "Lois Lane" in "Smallville," Durance followed up her successful seven-year run on the DC series with an even bigger project -- the lead on the five-year run of the NBC and CTV drama "Saving Hope," which she also produced.

The versatile Vandervoort, for whom "Supergirl" on "Smallville" and "Lisa" on "V" are the most popular roles, also had a three-year run as the headliner on the werewolf drama "Bitten" and has had a variety of other acting and voice acting roles, including spots on "The H."

The five join 11 Back to the Future trilogy stars, headlined by Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson and Tom Wilson at FAN EXPO New Orleans.
