Emotion was at its height on Sunday, October 9, on the occasion of New York Comic Con, an event that since 2006 has brought together thousands of fans from all over the world around comics, cinema, television, games video or manga. And it’s a cult saga of the big screen that was in the spotlight this weekend since Christopher Lloyd, who plays the character of Dr. Emmett Brown – nicknamed “Doc”, and Michael J. Fox who had inherited the role of Marty McFly, were reuniting after making an impression in the 80s and 90s for their legendary duo in Back to the future 1,2 and 3.
After having gone back in time at the wheel of a DeLorean (sports car, editor’s note) which has become iconic, the two acolytes shared a moment of complicity on stage, which did not fail to move the spectators who Elsewhere booked a proper standing ovation upon arrival. A sequence all the more touching as Michael J. Fox, now 61 years old, has been fighting against Parkinson’s disease for many years. He thus struggles to move, which has not escaped the notice of the millions of fans of the saga who were very saddened by the state of health of their idol on social networks.
