It was hard to find AJ when we looked for him at the Telltale Booth. Until we realized we were looking for the picture on the right.

Some of the coolest moments of E3 tend to happen unplanned, on the way from one schedule event to the other. One of these awesome occurrences fell right in the lap of the BT team on the first day of the show when, after finishing up a full tour of Telltale’s upcoming slate of games, we were told that we just might be lucky enough to catch a cast member of the Back to the Future in person if we were to show up the next day.

However, not just any cast member, but rather AJ “Marty McFly” LoCascio! Leaping at the chance (quite literally, which of course scared everyone involved), we sped out of our mid-afternoon engagements on day 2 just in time to make it to the Telltale booth! Throwing up a (gang?) sign on the booth wall, and standing guard for the Exhibition Hall PoPo, we took five minutes of AJ’s time to find out what it was like to be a voice actor in gaming, how he fell into the role, and to make him dance, monkey, dance with a couple choice impressions!

Here, folks, is AJ LoCascio, the voice of Marty McFly in Telltale’s Back to the Future!

Special thanks for AJ’s time go first and foremost to AJ himself, gracious and funny as he was, and secondly to Alex Brewer of the High Water Group, for his unyielding organization, accommodation, and kindness to BT during our first E3!
