Michael J. Fox, the beloved actor best known for his iconic role as Marty McFly in the 'Back to the Future' series, has announced the release of his upcoming memoir, titled Future Boy: Back to the Future and My Journey Through the Space-Time Continuum. The highly anticipated book is set to hit shelves later this year.
The memoir will take readers on a journey through one of the most pivotal years in Fox’s life, 1985. This was the year he simultaneously starred in the blockbuster film 'Back to the Future' and the hit TV series 'Family Ties,' cementing his status as a household name. The book will explore not only the highs of his skyrocketing career but also the personal challenges that would follow.
Fox’s life took an unexpected turn in 1991 when he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease at the age of 29. The actor first noticed symptoms while filming 'Doc Hollywood,' experiencing a sore shoulder and a twitching pinky. He chose to keep his diagnosis private for several years before publicly sharing it in 1998, becoming a global advocate for Parkinson’s awareness and research.
In a statement to People, Fox expressed his excitement about the memoir, saying, "As we approach the 40th anniversary of 'Back to the Future,' my thoughts turn to my adventures as a younger man. This book has basically become a time machine for me, but unlike the DeLorean, there's plenty of room for anyone who'd like to climb in for the ride."
Fox’s previous memoirs, including 'Lucky Man' and 'No Time Like the Future,' have been bestsellers, praised for their candid storytelling and inspiring messages. Future Boy is expected to delve even deeper into his life, his struggles, and his enduring optimism.
Fans of the actor are eagerly anticipating the new release, which promises to be both a nostalgic journey through Hollywood’s golden years and an intimate reflection on resilience. As the world prepares to celebrate the 40th anniversary of 'Back to the Future,' Michael J. Fox’s new memoir is set to offer a fresh perspective on the star’s incredible journey.
