Marty McFly
Martin Seamus "Marty" McFly is a fictional character in the Back to the Future trilogy. He is portrayed by actor Michael J. Fox. Marty also appears in the animated series, where he was voiced by David Kaufman. In the videogame by Telltale Games, he is voiced by A.J. Locascio; in addition, Fox voiced Marty's future counterparts at the end of the game. In 2008, Marty McFly was selected by Empire magazine as the 39th Greatest Movie Character of All Time.
Eric Stoltz was originally cast as Marty McFly, but after five weeks of shooting scenes for the first film, director Robert Zemeckis and executive producer Steven Spielberg chose to re-cast the role to Fox.
Marty was born in Hill Valley, California in 1968 to a family of Irish descent. Little is known about Marty's life prior to the first Back to the Future film, except for the fact that he set fire to the living-room rug when he was 8 years old (which is revealed via a statement of Marty's to his future parents).
In 1985, Marty plays guitar with his group The Pinheads and likes listening to Huey Lewis and the News, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, and Van Halen. He is also a talented skateboarder and proven to be an excellent shot with a gun, honed by endlessly playing shooting games such as Wild Gunman at his local 7-Eleven.
Although Marty is often accident-prone and sometimes thought to lack critical thinking skills, he is nevertheless brave in the face of danger and can be very quick-witted and intelligent. He has shown some good and basic street fighting skills and often throws punches in hand-to-hand confrontations. He is loyal to his family and friends, regardless of whether or not he is estranged with them. His major character flaw is his pride, which causes him to take unnecessary risks to show others that he is not a chicken, as demonstrated at various points throughout the trilogy.
However, during a visit in 1885, when his ancestor Seamus McFly points out that his brother, Martin, was killed in an argument when someone questioned his bravery, Marty began to re-think his stance on what other people thought of him. Doc even had at one point implied that Marty could possibly have a similar fate, leading Marty to become more apprehensive of his actions. Biff Tannen's great-grandfather, Buford, goaded Marty into a showdown, which ended with Marty victorious over Buford. However, the experience from this event in addition of following Seamus's examples, changed Marty. This was highlighted when, despite Marty's rival from school Needles's attempts, Marty refused to race him, thus avoiding an "automobile accident" involving a Rolls-Royce. Marty learned how to base his decisions and actions on his own terms instead of being influenced by others, therefore changing his future for the better.
