Welcome to 90s Con, can Kel Mitchell take your order?

As 90s Con returned to the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford, Conn., on Friday, March 28, the Nickelodeon star, 46, hit the stage for a fun-filled solo panel — in character as Good Burger’s Ed.

Not only did Mitchell sing, take selfies and even FaceTime fans, but he also shared some exciting details for projects to come, including some with Kenan Thompson.

“So, here’s the thing — we teased it. At the end of the movie, I said, ‘We’re gonna go to space. We’re going to Fast and Furious this thing,'” he laughed.

“Me and Kenan actually sat down and talked about the script for part three, alright, so it’s going to go down. We’ve got to make sure it’s right, just like how Good Burger 2 was,” he shared.

Mitchell assured, “We’re not gonna make you guys wait over 15 years”.

That’s not the only thing Thompson and Mitchell might have in the works. The actor also revealed that he and Thompson have discussed a Kenan & Kel revival that would see the two as husbands and fathers, to reflect the actors’ lives today.

Mitchell rose to fame from a young age upon becoming a cast member on All That in 1994. During his time on the sketch series, the actor joined forces with his All That costar for Kenan & Kel in 1996 and the Good Burger movie (based on their All That characters) in 1997.

Mitchell would eventually return to his Nickelodeon roots, joining the cast of Game Shakers, which ran from 2015 to 2019 for three seasons. He also reteamed with Thompson, 46, to star in Good Burger 2 in 2023.

Looking back on his career and the legacy he’s left thus far, Mitchell told Business Insider in 2022: “Ever since All That, I love just having fun, creating new characters and old characters.”

“But it’s something with the nostalgia. I feel because I grew up in theater, it’s very important to me to really know your character and create a world for your character,” he continued. “I think my characters have their own — I almost sound crazy when I say this — but I feel like they have their own life, my characters. And when people see them, it’s not even me. They’re just like, ‘Oh, Ed,’ or ‘Oh, Coach Kreeton,’ all these different characters.”

“When we did the reboot of All That in 2019, every time I got into character, I remember walking back to my dressing room and I walked by the mirror — this happened with Ed and with Coach Kreeton — and I just was like, ‘Oh, hi! Hello, old friend. Let’s go. Let’s do this thing,’ ” he added.

90s Con is running through Sunday, March 30, at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford.
