"Wait a minute, Doc. Are you telling me you built a time machine... out of a DeLorean?"
In early 1985, Michael J. Fox was one of the biggest stars on television. His world was about to get even bigger, but only if he could survive the kind of double duty unheard of in Hollywood.
Fox’s days were dedicated to rehearsing and taping the hit sitcom Family Ties. But his nights belonged to a new time-travel adventure film being directed by Robert Zemeckis and produced by Steven Spielberg—Back to the Future.
In Future Boy, Fox tells the remarkable story of his own "space-time continuum"—commuting from a soundstage at Paramount to the back lot at Universal Studios, trying to catch a few minutes of sleep while swapping the baton between Alex P. Keaton and Marty McFly.
Why this memoir is a blast from the past:
A Unique Slice of History: A vivid account of how two of the 80s' most iconic characters were created simultaneously by one exhausted actor.
Behind the Scenes: Features new interviews with cast and crew, revealing the chaos and creativity of the production.
Pure Nostalgia: If you grew up wishing you had a flux capacitor, this book takes you right back to 1985.
🔭 From the Desk of Paul Bracken: "Time travel might theoretically be impossible (or at least very difficult), but Back to the Future made us all wish it wasn't. This book is a testament to endurance. We stock this because Marty McFly inspired a generation of kids to look at clocks—and the future—a little differently. Plus, who doesn't love the DeLorean?"
