Michael J. Fox Forgot How Great He Was in Back to the Future
In a poignant and candid moment, beloved actor Michael J. Fox opened up about his battle with memory loss in his latest documentary, "Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie," available on Apple TV+. The iconic star revealed that he has forgotten how extraordinary he was in the legendary "Back to the Future" franchise until he recently rewatched the films during the holiday season.
Fox shared an endearing anecdote from his personal experience, recalling a Christmas moment when he took a break from decorating the tree and wandered off to the kitchen. To his surprise, he was captivated by the sight of "Back to the Future" playing on TV. In a lighthearted tone, he turned to his wife, Tracy Pollan, and exclaimed, "Look, Back to the Future's on TV! You know what, I'm really good in this!" It was then that Pollan reassured him, saying, "Yeah, we know." Fox playfully responded, "Well, why didn't you tell me?!"
Reflecting further, the actor revealed his initial disbelief that his success in the franchise would endure. He had anticipated that once the films were released, he would simply return to the background and start anew. However, his agent quickly made him realize the immense impact of the "Back to the Future" phenomenon. Fox admitted that his immediate reaction was the eagerness to return to America, driven by the desire to meet new people and embrace the newfound fame.
As fans of the trilogy debate over which installment was the greatest, Fox's heartfelt candidness shines a light on the resilience and humor he maintains in the face of adversity.
