Toyota is about to unveil a new car and got two beloved stars to help them sell it. Back to the Future stars Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd filmed a commercial for the automaker.
The company teased a series of commercials with a 40-second spot posted today. It shows Fox and Lloyd just sitting in a diner, talking about the predictions made in Back To The Future Part II. Fox makes fun of Lloyd for still having a fax machine.
More videos will be released between now and Oct. 21, which is the exact date that Marty McFly and Doc Brown went to in the future in BTTF2. That is also the day that the Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell vehicle goes on sale.
“Over the years we’ve had a lot of fun predicting which Back to the Future fictional 2015 technology would arrive by the real year,” Fox said in a statement released by Toyota. “Now that we’re a week away, I think fans are going to have a good time with what Toyota sees as a true possibility for transportation. It’s actually really cool.”
Tomorrow’s video will feature a hint of where Toyota is putting a re-creation of Marty’s famous dream 4X4 truck on Oct. 21.
This year also marks the 30th anniversary of the first Back to the Future film, which hit theaters in 1985. The film, along with its two sequels, is being released on Blu-ray again, with new extras, including a short with Lloyd playing Doc Brown once again.
