In talking to the Phoenix New Times, Lloyd has previously said that he would love to be on the adult swim smash-hit.
“I don’t follow it closely, but I’ve seen a few episodes and I gotta tell you, I think it’s a lot of fun. I know it’s some kind of parody of Doc and Marty,” he laughed before saying that he’d be open to appear in some capacity, “I’d like to, of course. I think it’s really fun.”
“I think it’s a very positive film,” Lloyd said of Back to The Future. “A lot of people, especially at events, have told me Back to the Future helped them survive whatever issues they dealt with in their adolescence or before that. Back to the Future helped lift their spirits and be more optimistic. I think that’s a big thing and I’m so glad to be a part of something that helped people cope and get through their hardships.”
