Watched the documentary and it’s nuts how that went down. They filmed 6 weeks and Zemeckis just said it’s not working and he’s playing Marty too seriously because he was a method actor and was being too dramatic.

Hats off to Zemeckis for going to the studio saying he can’t do it anymore and asking to replace the lead actor 6 weeks into filming. Spielberg threw his weight around and the studios reluctantly said ok.

Can’t imagine anyone but MJF

And then they recast Jennifer bc the original actress (Melora Hardin) was taller than Fox.
