Michael J. Fox says he hated working with the DeLorean on Back to the Future

July 21, 2015 by Luke Owen

Over the past weekend at the London Film and Comic Con, Alien star Sigourney Weaver shared some of her issues she had with Paul W.S. Anderson’s AVP: Alien Vs. Predator, and now the stars of Back to the Future have shared some of their memories of the classic movie.

Speaking at the 30th Anniversary panel for the film, Michael J. Fox told the audience that he hated working with the DeLorean, the car used to travel back in time.

“The money it would take to get me back into the DeLorean again is a lot. I wish I had a video, a gag reel of how many times I was hit by that freakin’ door, the DeLorean door. Take after take, it would go, whack! It was the worst thing to drive. It had two gears and I slammed the door, and my hand would smash into the flux capacitor. My hand would be bleeding, my head would be bleeding … and I had to clean it off to get to the Family Ties set.”
