BACK TO THE FUTURE’s DeLorean Spotted On The Set Of ARTHUR Remake

The character ARTHUR, played by Russell Brand in the remake, is a rich playboy who’s got so much money he doesn’t know what to do with it. So it makes sense that he’d spend it lavishly on Batman Forever‘s Batmobile and Batman costume and.. the DeLorean car from Back To The future, just for the hell of it. Via The DailyMail, these photos show Brand on the set with the car that flew Marty McFly through time…

Starring Russell Brand, Greta Gerwig, Helen Mirren, Jennifer Garner and Nick  Nolte
Jason Winer who directed 10 episodes of Modern Family and won DGA for his work on the pilot  will direct WB’s ARTHUR Remake.
The screenplay was written by Peter Baynham
Russell Brand would star in ARTHUR, playing the character made famous by the late great Dudley Moore. The original movie plot centers around Arthurs who is a happy drunk with no pretensions at any ambition. He is also the heir to a vast fortune which he is told will only be his if he marries Susan. He does not love Susan, but she will make something of him the family expects. Arthur proposes but then meets a girl with no money who he could easily fall in love with.

Garner will play “an heiress who carries her own secrets and whom Brand must marry”
Nolte will play her religious father.
Gerwig will be Russell’s love interest, the role played by Liza Minelli in the original.

BUT… the remake will be slightly different
In the original, John Gielgud in his Oscar winning performance, played Arthur’s valet,
In the remake, Gielgud’s role has been modified.. so it’s now a nanny played by Helen Mirren
