Great news for lovers of Back to the Future, as the 1985 Robert Zemeckis classic is returning to the big screen to celebrate 40 years of being Back in Time. Why are we focising on the film here on Fantha? Not only was it produced by our esteemed president Kathleen Kennedy, but it also features visual effects by Industrial Light & Magic, and stars Christopher Lloyd (Helgait in the ‘Guns For Hire‘ episode of The Mandalorian). And, of course, it’s a stone cold 80’s classic.
