“Dining with my bestie at the beach,” Fox wrote in the caption of the photo of himself and Lloyd, smiling, heads affectionately bent toward one another in a restaurant.<\/p>\n
“Next year BTTF<\/em> is 41. Great Scott. Chris will be [88]. That’s some serious s—,” Fox continued.<\/p>\n In the comments, Lloyd responded with a cheeky reference to the iconic sci-fi comedy, quoting a classic line from Fox’s Marty McFly: “Man, that’s heavy.”<\/p>\n It has indeed been over 40 years since Back to the Future <\/em>first launched into theaters, capturing audiences imaginations and establishing a legacy that would carry on through two sequels, an animated TV series, a number of theme park rides, video games, a stage musical, and several books authored by Fox and his costars.<\/p>\n In the first film, Fox’s Marty is a high school student who inadvertently travels back in time thanks to the jalopy creation of his scientist friend Emmett “Doc” Brown (Lloyd), unwittingly breaks up his parents, and then scrambles to get them back together to save his own existence.<\/p>\n The cast including Fox, Lloyd, Lea Thompson, and Thomas F. Wilson have remained close over the years, or at least tied tightly together due to the franchise’s enduring popularity. Fox and Lloyd previously reunited in 2020, and in 2023, all four of the stars joined forces at FanExpo Portland.<\/p>\n Fox went on to star in a number of equally successful films and series, from Spin City <\/em>to Stuart Little <\/em>and The Good Wife<\/em>. But he’s always returned to Back to the Future <\/em>\u2014 most recently in the form of Future Boy<\/em>, a memoir published last year in which he recounts the making of the film.<\/p>\n Get your daily dose of entertainment news, celebrity updates, and what to watch with our\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>EW Dispatch newsletter<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n It was well known before Future Boy <\/em>that Fox was not the original choice for the role of Marty McFly; Eric Stoltz shot several weeks of footage in the role before director Robert Zemeckis and producer Steven Spielberg opted to swap Fox in.<\/p>\n In the memoir, Fox recounts how he never got to say his piece to Stoltz about the fateful switch-up, which led to Fox’s career completely taking off. Fox wrote that he finally sought Stoltz out while writing the book, and “with a smile, and we quickly acknowledged that neither of us had an issue with the other. What transpired on Back to the Future<\/em> had not made us enemies or fated rivals; we were just two dedicated actors who had poured equal amounts of energy into the same role. The rest had nothing to do with us.”<\/p>\n Read the original article on Entertainment Weekly<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The reunion comes months after the publication of “Future Boy,” Fox’s celebrated memoir recounting the making of the sci-fi comedy classic.
