'Back to the Future' is Heading Back To Theaters

Strap on your seat belts and get your flux capacitor firing, because the Back to the Future trilogy is going back to the big screen on October 21 for a one-night event. (Go here for more details.)

Universal made the announcement in London on Friday, where the franchise's cast — including stars Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, and Lea Thompson — reunited for a 30th anniversary celebration of the trilogy's first film. The Robert Zemeckis-directed film was the highest-grossing film of 1985.

The re-release date marks the exact date that Marty McFly, Fox's time-travelingteenager, landed in Back to the Future Part II, a movie that saw him zip ahead in time to save his future family.

The Back to the Future trilogy is also being released in a brand new box set that comes in a collectible, light-up Flux Capacitor packaging. The package is stocked with extras, including bonus features, documentaries, a vinyl soundtrack, a 64-page book, and the entire Back to the Future: The Animated Series.
