Michael J. Fox's Candid Reflections on Acting and Back to the Future.

Originally Published 2 years ago — by Variety

Michael J. Fox says he's at peace with the idea of a "Back to the Future" reboot without the original cast, but doesn't think it needs to happen. Christopher Lloyd is more open to the idea of a fourth film if there's a brilliant idea that justifies it. Fox was never approached about returning to the franchise after "Part III" due to his early stages of Parkinson's. The actors discuss their chemistry and ease working together. Fox revisits his film and television stardom and advocacy for Parkinson's research in a new documentary. "Back to the Future" is being reimagined as a Broadway musical, but Fox won't have a role.
