Award

2024-12-03
Zooey Deschanel and Jonathan Scott recently made a special appearance at a performance of Back to the Future on Broadway. On Sunday, December 1, the 44-year-old New Girl alum and the 46-year-old Property Brothers host stopped by the Winter Garden Theatre in New York City. They not only got the chance to meet the cast but also posed with one of the most iconic props from the 1985 film - the DeLorean, the sports car-turned-time machine used by Doc (Christopher Lloyd) to send Marty McFly (Michael J. Fox) back in time. The couple, who got engaged in August 2023, also posed with the cast members in a group photo to celebrate the musical's final month on stage. This year has been a busy one for them as they tease their upcoming nuptials. In August, Jonathan's co-host and brother Drew revealed that Jonathan is "absolutely" going to cry at their wedding. Jonathan jokingly added that it will be a mess. The Celebrity IOU star also shared that they have been so busy that they "literally haven't had time to just stop and think." He wants to keep the wedding intimate as weddings can be expensive but joked about having escape rooms like on their first date - sushi and some shows. The TV host previously told PEOPLE in May that they are planning multiple wedding events. They know the most important thing is to be surrounded by loved ones and not have a crazy, extravagant wedding. Although Back To The Future is coming to an end of its nearly 18-month run on Broadway, the cast and crew are passionate about the show. Just last month, director Robert Zemeckis revealed during an interview that he would like to do a Back to the Future: The Musical movie but Universal Studios isn't on board yet. The musical's final performance is scheduled for January 5.

Engagement and Wedding Plans

Jonathan and Zooey got engaged in August 2023, and since then, their lives have been filled with wedding preparations. Drew, Jonathan's brother and co-host, shared that Jonathan is definitely going to cry at their wedding. It's clear that this is a moment they are both looking forward to. However, with their busy schedules, they haven't had much time to think about the details. They want to keep the wedding intimate, knowing that weddings can be expensive. But they also added a touch of fun with the idea of having escape rooms like on their first date. This shows their unique personalities and how they are approaching their big day.

Back to the Future on Broadway

The performance of Back to the Future on Broadway has been a highlight for Zooey and Jonathan. They got to experience the magic of the musical and pose with the iconic DeLorean. This encounter with the prop from the movie added an extra layer of excitement to their visit. The musical's final month on stage is a significant event, and they were part of this memorable moment. It's not just about the performance but also the memories they made together.

Director's Perspective

Back to the Future director Robert Zemeckis recently revealed his thoughts on the franchise. He expressed no desire to direct a fourth installment but would be interested in making a movie musical. This shows the continued impact of the Back to the Future story and the potential for new adaptations. His words give insight into the creative minds behind the movie and the musical. It's interesting to see how the story continues to evolve and capture the hearts of audiences.
