While the 18th Anniversary of “Back to the Future III” is happening writer/producer Bob Gale was at the 5th Annual Exotic Car Festival  for the Make a Wish Foundation where they held a fan Q&A session, someone from the audience asked him if there is ever going to be a “Back to the Future part 4” to have one more sequel to the series.

Gale confirmed to the audience, no there is going to be no Back to the Future part 4. He explains, Michael J. Fox is battling many years of suffering Parkinson’s Disease. Gale said if they did one without Michael J. Fox, it wouldn’t live up to the first three. They simply don’t want to do another Back to the Future movie without Michael, so they said the hell with them, they’ll just leave the three movies alone. They feel that they can’t make a fourth one at all and like the three movies the way they are.

Another Back to the Future movie without Michael as Marty McFly would be travesty. So it’s a good thing they are not doing another one. I’m sure Christopher Lloyd still has what it takes to play Doc Emmet Brown but I can’t see him doing the movie alone as the leading role instead of McFly.

I love the three Back to the Future films myself, of course the first one will always be a classic. I love the second one too, the third one wasn’t great but still a fun movie though.
