Steve Wozniak’s Silicon Valley Comic Con (SVCC) has announced in a press release that three original members of Back to the Future – Michael J. Fox, Lea Thompson, and Christopher Lloyd will be reuniting on stage for an exclusive panel, photo ops, and special signings. SVCC is hosted at the San Jose Convention Center in San Jose, CA from March 18-20, 2016. The Back to the Future panel is titled “Spotlight on Back to the Future” and will take place on Saturday March 19th at 12pm.
Fox, Thompson, and Lloyd have not appeared together for fan photo-ops at a comic con event but are very excited to attend. Lloyd states:
I wanted to be a part of Silicon Valley Comic Con because for me this show highlights what the Valley has meant to science, technology and innovation and encapsulates what Back To The Future is about and much of what seems to be such a strong bond for many fans of the film and why it still lives in their imaginations. I am really looking forward to meeting the fans at Silicon Valley Comic Con.
Back to the Future fans have much more to look forward to as well at SVCC with three other BttF themed attractions:
Back to the Future: Adventures in a DeLorean Time Machine
