Dishing with the audience: Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, co-star Stephanie Beatriz, and producers Phil Lord and Chris Miller; panel talked about sequel and revealed new footage
The two stars couldn't hold back their enthusiasm as they laughed and joked during the appearance.
Chris, 39, looked casual cool dressed in black jeans with a dark blazer, a button down shirt and some grey ankle boots.
Elizabeth, 44, oozed summer chic in a Veronica Beard white striped sun dress with some pumps.
She had her signature blond tresses dyed a little lighter and was parted in the middle.
Working the crowd: Chris and the panel had fun during a brief Q-and-A session
Also on hand for the panel was co-star Stephanie Beatriz, as well as Phil Lord and Chris Miller. Lord and Miller directed the first Lego Movie and are back on board for the sequel as producers.
During the appearance, Chris and Elizabeth talked about their roles; they had a brief Q-and-A; and they introduced new footage that was exclusive to the Comic Con audience.
It was also revealed that Chris will be playing double duty this go-around.
Revelation: Chris is voicing Emmet and also the new character Rex Dangervest
Not only is he back to voice the role of Emett Brickowski, but he is also playing a new character named Rex Dangervest, who is basically a mix of previous movie roles Chris has played over his career such as Owen Grady from Jurassic World.
In the new clip, Rex Dangervest is surrounded by a bunch of raptors, and in another, he is wearing a costume that is a clear homage to his role as Star Lord from Guardian of the Galaxy.
'These wonderful writers tend to sort of mine from my life to make this film, so don’t be surprised if you see another instance of art imitating life in this movie,' Chris told the audience as reported by Entertainment Weekly.
Huge success: The Lego Movie from 2014 earned more than $469 million
The Lego Movie 2 picks up five years since the events of Taco Tuesday and Duplo invaders have turned Bricksburg into a post apocalyptic wasteland. Movie fans will find Emmet pretending that everything is awesome but, in reality, it is far from it.
The pieces start to crumble even more when a new invader, Sweet Harmony, wrecks everything faster than they can rebuild, and kidnaps all of Emmet's friends including Wyldstyle. He then must then go into space and try to rescue them.
The Lego Movie from 2014 got rave reviews and earned more than $469 million for Warner Bros.
The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part will hit theaters February 8, 2019.
