Surprise! The original Back To The Future cast reunited

It's the power of Lloyd, not the Power of Love that's sent shockwaves through fans of Back To The Future.

Doc Brown, aka Christopher Lloyd, has managed to reunite the stars of the '80s time-travel classic for a photo at the fan convention they were attending.

Stars Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson and Thomas Wilson had all been taking part in the Fan Expo in Boston in the US when the reunion happened.

"This was special," Lloyd captioned his post after getting Marty McFly, Biff Tannen, Lorraine Baines and Doc Brown together.

One fan commented, "This is awesome! My 11 year old son asked me today, 'Dad, do you think they will make a Back to the Future pt 4?' These movies mean so much to me and now him. Thanks!"

Lea Thompson also posted the picture with the title "Four old friends get back from the future".

There's been much speculation over whether there would ever be a fourth installment of the Back To The Future series, but there's still been no announcement on whether the foursome will reunite one more time.

Meanwhile Metro reported it probably won't happen.

"Basically, I think America is saying, 'Come on, they've wrecked every other franchise with bad sequels, why not this one?'" Wilson said, who played Biff. "C'mon, we would watch it until it sucks."

Fox also poured doubts it would happen, saying that the actors have no say in whether another movie gets made, saying that co-creator Bob Gale is the "gatekeeper of the franchise".
