The co-stars went 'Back to the Future' this weekend.

Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd shared a special hug upon reuniting during a Back to the Future panel at New York Comic-Con. 

During the event, the co-stars reminisced on their time working together and told behind-the-scenes stories from filming the now-iconic 1985 movie. The two even detailed how they met, and how Fox was cast for the lead role of Marty McFly.

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - OCTOBER 08: Actors Christopher Lloyd (L) and Michael J. Fox attend a "Back To The Future Reunion" at New York Comic Con on <a href="https://parade.com/living/october-holidays-observances/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:October;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">October</a> 08, 2022 in New York City.

Originally, actor Eric Stoltz was set to play Marty in the classic film, and he even shot a few scenes before director Robert Zemeckis realized he wasn't right for the part. Fox ended up coming onboard during production, and Lloyd was forced to reshoot scenes he had already filmed with Stoltz.

“I didn’t know Michael other than hearing about him,” Lloyd said during the panel, according to Uproxx. “And I felt that I had barely made it through the six weeks, and now I was going to have to do it again? There was immediate chemistry, as they say.”

"The chemistry was there from the first scene we had. It remained that way for three movies and it hasn't gone away, by the way," he continued.

Fox chimed in, noting that all he had to do was "react" to the "brilliant" Lloyd who played the anomalous Dr. Emmett Brown.

After watching the reunion between the two co-stars, many fans took to Twitter to express their excitement. One fan wrote, "I think it's safe to safe that today belongs to Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd. As It should do. It's a beautiful moment in time."

Another fan also tweeted, "Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd. This iconic duo from Back to the Future, always in my heart."
