Like you said, it's only a week apart, so it's not like they are going to reveal a whole bunch of new info, even if they do go. That being said, we haven't heard they aren't going, and I feel like we would have heard that by now, right?

But they also do a lot of interviews at SDCC! With D23, it's one panel that will probably be more of a general overview of their new direction and trying to reassure older fans that all hope is not lost, lol. I think most people who like following SDCC do it for the cast interactions, and since they're bringing in a new group of characters, I'd be worthwhile for them to go so we can "meet" those new cast members and get more character-specific info. It's also a bigger promotion platform if ABC wants the exposure.
