Stars From ‘Back to the Future’ Headed to Hudson Valley

Marty McFly's girlfriend, Jennifer Parker, and Principal Strickland are coming to the Hudson Valley to meet up with Back to the Future fans.

The announcement was made on The Boris & Robyn Show this morning by the organizers of Hudson Valley Comic Con. In addition to actors Claudia Wells and James Tolkan, a Marty McFly look-alike will be on hand as well as an authentic DeLorean time machine, autographed by the original cast. Attendees will have the opportunity to get autographs and even pose for a photo with the stars of the movie while sitting inside the famed DeLorean.
