Voyager 1 and 2 are both headed out into deep space on trajectories which will eventually throw them completely clear of the solar system. They'll never be close to Earth again.

The only way they would ever return to Earth would be if we developed faster-than-light travel (or something close) and went out and picked them up. Or someone might pick them up and return them to us. You know, like those guys with the little trucks who pick up shopping carts and take them back to stores? Like that. Someone with some really, really high tech transportation. Someone with the ability to swing out there and drag them back without too much trouble.
