Michael J. Fox’s “Back to the Future” wasn’t just movie magic … he says it straight-up inspired some huge names to pick up a guitar and go full rockstar.
The iconic actor hit “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” for National “Back to the Future” Day on Tuesday and dropped a bombshell … saying his Marty McFly role in the ’85 classic inspired none other than John Mayer and Chris Martin to become the full-fledged icons they are today!
Michael spilled that Chris was so thankful, he even jammed with him onstage … so yeah, if you’re wondering what lit the fire under Coldplay’s frontman and John Mayer — you can thank Marty freakin’ McFly!
It was a wide-ranging sit-down with Stephen, where Michael also marked the 25th anniversary of The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research … proudly noting they’ve pulled in a staggering $2.5 billion to date.
As you know, Michael was first diagnosed with Parkinson’s in the early ’90s … and he went public with it years later while starring on “Spin City.”
