Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Tom Wilson and Lea Thompson gathered on stage at the Fan Expo in Portland and recalled memorable moments from the famous saga, while the actress then shared some videos with colleagues

Rogue nostalgia. It’s what all the fans of the «Back to the Future» saga felt when they saw Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Tom Wilson and Lea Thompson gathered together on the stage of the Fan Expo in Portland, which every year celebrates the greatest cultural phenomena pop of all time, almost 38 years after the release of the first film. A reunion immortalized by Thompson herself – who played Lorraine Barnes McFly, Marty’s mother in the 1985 film – in a memorable selfie that immediately went viral.

«Wow, honestly I had fun like never before with my #Bttf family», wrote the 61-year-old actress accompanying the shot, using the acronym of the original English title, «Back to the Future» and then sharing in the same post also some videos with his co-stars. “Look who’s here,” Thompson says in one clip, addressing 84-year-old Lloyd, aka mad scientist Emmet “Doc” Brown. «My favorite boy ever», says the actress to Wilson in another video, with the actor who, in return, first compliments his colleague on her beauty, not at all scratched by the passing of the years, and then He taps her head like he did in the movie, asking, “Hey, is anyone home?”

. Fox also wanted to share his emotion at meeting his fellow adventurers. “Love being at these FanExpo events and seeing some of my favorite people like Lea, Tom, Chris and all you guys #bttf Heavy!” the actor wrote in his Ig Story, quoting one of the recurring expressions of the alter-ego of him, Marty. However, this in Oregon was not the first reunion of the cast. In fact, it had already happened last October, on the occasion of the New York Comic-Con, when Fox and Lloyd had embraced each other again on stage and they had also met again in 2020 for a charity tournament organized by the Michael J. Fox Foundation, who has been fighting for years to find a cure for Parkinson’s, the disease from which Fox suffers.
