NEW YORK (AP) — Michael J. Fox has been living with “Back to the Future” for a long time.

“I’ll be on the street and some kid will go, ‘There’s Marty McFly!’” Fox says. “No, this is an old man.”

It’s been 40 years since “Back to the Future” debuted in theaters, but neither time, nor Parkinson’s disease has done much — regardless of what he says — to diminish Fox’s boyish good nature. For Fox, traveling through time with “Back to the Future” has been part of life. It’s the film that strapped a flux capacitor to his career and has, ever since, stayed in his rear view.

“Sometimes I look at it and think about my family,” Fox, 64, said in a recent interview by Zoom from his apartment in New York. “I think about how I have a 37-year-old son who wasn’t born yet. It’s a long time ago.”

On Friday, “Back to the Future” is, again, back in theaters. The anniversary celebration also includes a new 4K trilogy gift set that comes complete with an OUTATIME license plate. Fox, himself, has just released “Future Boy: ‘Back to the Future’ and My Journey Through the Space-Time Continuum,” a book he penned with Nelle Fortenberry.

It’s a truly timeless trilogy. I read a book about the making of the movies that was okay, but I think reading about it from Fox’s perspective will be interesting.
