Robert Zemeckis humorously noted that Universal checks in with him about making a new Back to the Future film, saying they ask every 'couple of years.' He added that, while this was an exaggeration, there is genuine interest in exploring a sequel. He recounted a playful scenario pretending to be a Universal executive asking, 'Isn't there anything we can do?' highlighting the ongoing curiosity but also the lack of concrete developments regarding a follow-up to the beloved franchise.
Zemeckis expressed a desire to adapt a Back to the Future musical into a movie, describing it as something he would love to do. He remarked on the challenges he faces, humorously stating that after pitching the idea, he felt that Universal 'doesn't get it.' This exchange underscores the limitations he currently faces in realizing this potential project, despite his enthusiasm for the concept of a musical adaptation of the iconic film.
In a nod to the original film's lasting legacy, Zemeckis reminded fans that while discussions about reviving the series happen, the classic remains a trilogy. He comically remarked that Universal reaches out with inquiries about a sequel, illustrating the ongoing affection and nostalgia for Back to the Future, which celebrates its 40th anniversary soon. This sentiment captures both the franchise's historical significance and the creators' commitment to preserving its integrity.
