Michael J. Fox Returns As Marty McFly In 'LEGO Dimensions' Trailer

It used to be that licensed games had little to no hope of securing voice actors that were familiar to players. But that has changed dramatically over the years, to the point where it isn't surprising to see film and TV actors lending their voices to games. But the game Lego Dimensions is still crazy — it's voice cast is like a jumble of actors who are all hanging out after the stories in a shelf full of DVDs come to life.

This wild ensemble features Christopher Lloyd and Michael J. Fox as their Back to the Future characters; Peter Capaldi and many other Doctor Who actors as their respective characters; the cast of The Lego Movie, with Chris Pratt doing double duty as Owen from Jurassic World; and even a video game crossover, as Ellen McLain shows up as GLaDOS from Portal.

Oh, and Gary Oldman voices the bad guy. What a weird world we live in now. Check out the Lego Dimensions trailer below.

Here's a bunch of marketing copy:
