Back To The Future... And Back - 40 Years of Marty, Doc, & Mayor Goldie Wilson

Author and pop culture historian Brad Gilmore returns just in time for the 40th anniversary of Back To The Future! He and Chris break down Brad’s new book, Why We Love Back To The Future, a deep dive into the making, legacy, and ongoing cultural impact of the iconic film trilogy. Brad shares behind-the-scenes stories from interviews with Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Bob Gale, Robert Zemeckis, Claudia Wells, and more. They talk casting controversies (Eric Stoltz vs. Michael J. Fox), the Broadway musical adaptation, lost scenes, Biff Tannen’s villainy, and why the original film is considered a perfect movie script by filmmakers like Quentin Tarantino. Plus, get the real story behind the lawsuit involving Crispin Glover, the DeLorean’s evolution, and the infamous “Space Zombies From Pluto” title pitch! Also, hear how Huey Lewis ended up in the film, what made the soundtrack so unforgettable, and whether a new Back To The Future project could ever happen with the blessing of the original creators.
