Episode Back to the Future Part II (1989) | Ep. 77 - Part 1
The future is now — and John, Westy, and Matt are here to tell you exactly how Robert Zemeckis built it. In Part 1 we go deep on the opening and middle of one of the most ambitious sequels Hollywood ever attempted: hoverboards, self-lacing Nikes, and a plot that required filming the past, present, and future simultaneously. (Doc would be proud.)
From the decision to make Parts II and III back-to-back, to the technical wizardry behind Hill Valley 2015, to the extraordinary challenge of recasting a central role mid-franchise — we cover the film's beginning, director Robert Zemeckis, the cast, and the second act, with analysis and huge laughs as we go.
Part 2, covering the crew, the finale, reception, and the legacy of the franchise, is available now.
Telling the story of Hollywood, one film at a time.
