Motor City Comic Con Responds

The Motor City Comic Con also tweeted about Lloyd’s appearance at the event, saying, “It was an honor to host #DocBrown himself #ChristopherLloyd at #MotorCityComicCon this past weekend.

Lloyd Talks “Back to the Future” Sequel

During a panel discussion at the event, Lloyd spoke about his experience playing Doc Brown in the “Back to the Future” franchise alongside Michael J. Fox’s character Marty McFly. He also recently spoke to Variety magazine about the possibility of a fourth movie in the franchise, saying, “I would love to do a sequel, but I think Bob Zemeckis and [producer Steven] Spielberg felt that they told the story in the three episodes. But if somebody has a brilliant idea that would justify a fourth film it might happen.” Lloyd also spoke about his on-screen chemistry with Fox, saying, “There was a certain ease between us. I didn’t have to struggle to get there with Michael. There was never any conflict. It just fit. And it’s never stopped. I feel like we could go and do it again after all these years and not have to think about the relationship between Marty and Doc.”
