Back to the Future Fans Wanting a Fourth Film? 'F**k You,' Says Co-Creator

by Penelope Feb 22,2025

Bob Gale, co-creator of the beloved Back to the Future trilogy, delivered a blunt message to fans yearning for a fourth installment: "F*** you."

In a recent interview with Yahoo, Gale, alongside Robert Zemeckis, emphatically stated that there are absolutely no plans for a continuation of the franchise's established storyline. Responding to persistent inquiries about a Back to the Future 4, Gale, speaking backstage at the Saturn Awards, bluntly reiterated his sentiment.

While Hollywood frequently embraces reboots and sequels, often with mixed results (witness the critical reception of The Matrix Resurrections and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny), Back to the Future, ironically, will remain firmly entrenched in its past.

The original 1985 film, featuring high schooler Marty McFly's time-traveling misadventures with the eccentric Doc Brown, achieved iconic status. However, its sequels, released in 1989 and 1990, received less enthusiastic reviews.

Despite a three-decade absence from the big screen, the franchise's legacy endures, extending beyond its cultural impact to include a successful Broadway musical. Gale revealed plans for a stage production destined for Royal Caribbean Cruises and hinted at collaborating with Michael J. Fox on a book detailing Fox's experiences with the franchise.
