科幻片《回到未来》那款可以穿越时空的跑车现实生活中曾批量生产过，但公司还没撑到电影上映就破产了。公司的创始人叫约翰·德罗宁，这个英国人曾被誉为史上最大胆的汽车商人，也可能是史上最大的汽车骗子。 近日一部描述他的纪录片《创造约翰德罗宁》发布首款预告（时光网独家听译中字），《碟中谍6》男星，也就是经常在电视节目中模仿川普的亚历克·鲍德温扮演德罗宁本尊，《死侍》女星莫瑞娜·巴卡琳扮演德罗宁的超模妻子。 《创造约翰德罗宁》不是一部单纯的纪录片，里面既有原型约翰·德罗宁、子女、同事等人的访谈、新闻资料，也有扮演他的亚历克·鲍德温的“场景重现”画面，甚至有亚历克·鲍德温在片场间隙的采访。算是纪录片+剧情片奇妙混合，将于今年6月7日在美国部分影院上映。 德罗宁是一家已经消失的美国汽车制造厂，由汽车业高级主管，英国人约翰·德罗宁于1975年创立。它以生产与众不同具有鸥翼车门和不锈钢车体的德罗宁DMC-12汽车闻名于世。 德罗宁跑车成名于在世界各地广受欢迎的《回到未来》电影，影片1985年上映，但德罗宁公司1982年就破产了。电影中德罗宁DMC-12跑车被古怪的科学家埃米特·L·布朗博士改装成时间旅行机器，其形象成为普遍的大众回忆。 由于公司破产，不再有新车出厂，DMC-12反而成为珍藏品。但直到今日，大量的DMC-12依然还在使用当中。一般估计，生产约9000辆的DMC-12中有6500辆仍在使用，许多由车主、爱好者形成的社团与俱乐部依然十分活跃，甚至成为一种特殊的文化。
