Great Scott! It’s only Christopher Lloyd himself reprising his role as bonkers scientist Doc Brown to introduce a slew of new characters that will be available in Lego Dimensions when the anticipated crossover title debuts in September.
Acting as a Warner Bros. greatest hits album in many ways, the fresh faces include Doc Brown himself – who Lloyd stumbles upon in the above video – Batman, The Lord of the Rings and characters from last year’s rather excellent The Lego Movie. As the clip demonstrates, Dimensions will follow in the footsteps of Skylanders and Disney Infinity by selling starter packs and a Toy Pad, enabling players to bring their bite-sized heroes to life seamlessly in the game.
In tandem with today’s new trailer, the publisher detailed some of the features fans can expect in a few months’ time, including the amount of characters that can be brought to life at any given time.

Twilight Of A Life and 7 Days In St. Petersburg sweep the Israeli competition at 17th Tel Aviv International Documentary Film Festival
Amanda Wilder’s Approaching the Elephant won the Best International Film Award at the 17th Docaviv, the Tel Aviv International Documentary Film Festival, which ran May 7-16. The award comes with cash prize of €4,500.
The observational documentary about three students of one of the few “free schools” in the Us, where all classes are voluntary and rules are determined by vote, and adults and children have an equal say, world-premiered at the 2014 True/False Film Festival.
The special jury mention went to A German Youth, the first feature film of renowned experimental film-maker Jean-Gabriel Periot. The France-Germany-Switzerland co-production is an account of the Baader-Meinhof Group and the tense political situation in West Germany in the 1960s and ’70s, completely built from archive materials, and had its world premiere in Berlinale’s Panorama this year.
