Red Dead Redemption 2 is an epic tale of life in America at the dawn of the modern age.

America, 1899. The end of the wild west era has begun as lawmen hunt down the last remaining outlaw gangs. Those who will not surrender or succumb are killed.

After a robbery goes badly wrong in the western town of Blackwater, Arthur Morgan and the Van der Linde gang are forced to flee. With federal agents and the best bounty hunters in the nation massing on their heels, the gang must rob, steal and fight their way across the rugged heartland of America in order to survive. As deepening internal divisions threaten to tear the gang apart, Arthur must make a choice between his own ideals and loyalty to the gang who raised him.

Saddle up, pardner! The Van Der Linde gang from Rockstar Games’Red Dead Redemption 2 is heading out and hitching their wagons outside the Long Beach Convention Center to attend Long Beach Comic Con 2019.

The performance- and voice-capture artists behind the hot-headed Bill Williamson, Steve J. Palmer, Dutch’s high-class lover Molly O’Shea, Penny O’Brien, and the kind hearted yet wiley Mary-Beth Gaskill, Samantha Strelitz, will be in attendance for LBCC 2019, which will be held in Long Beach, California from August 31 to September 1. 

Palmer, Strelitz, and O’Brien will be featured as special guests, taking selfies with fans, doing professional photo-shoots, and signing autographs at the show. The Ladies of the Van Der Linde Gang are making their convention debut at LBCC 2019! The cast will be stationed at the Social Square.

Palmer is an actor best known for portraying hot-blooded and short-tempered Van der Linde Gang enforcer Bill Williamson for Rockstar Games’ Red Dead Redemption (2010), Red Dead Redemption 2 (2018), and the FOX Network Special Red Dead Redemption: The Man From Blackwater.
