À propos de cet audio
Michael J. Fox has kept a high profile over the past few days with both heartfelt public appearances and media headlines reminding us why he remains such a beloved figure. On August 10th, Fox made a rare public outing to Southampton, New York, where he attended a special IMAX screening celebrating the 40th anniversary of Back to the Future, the blockbuster that made him a household name. Fans, critics, and fellow stars filled the sold-out event, and Fox joined Southampton Playhouse’s artistic director, Eric Kohn, for a post-film conversation. The exchange ranged from the evolution of his acting career and his life with Parkinson’s, to his ongoing advocacy work with the Michael J. Fox Foundation. Kohn later described the event online, highlighting Michael’s blend of emotion, humor, and inspiration. There were no major gaffes, breakdowns, or concerning moments—only a standing ovation and admiration, with national media like USA Today noting both the tribute and Fox’s enduring spirit.
His visibility goes beyond nostalgia. Fox is front and center in Parkinson’s research news, as the Michael J. Fox Foundation continues to underwrite ambitious clinical trials targeting everything from new oral drugs that seek to slow disease progression to cutting-edge cell therapies. The foundation’s work has led major recruitment drives this week, garnering press attention on medical sites and in research newsletters as the scientific community lauds Fox’s determination to help crack the code of this relentless disease.
Business activity is robust: the Foundation’s Team Fox campaign is ramping up for the Chicago Marathon, with neurologists, patients, and social influencers urging donations and participation. Industry insiders say this marathon effort, planned for later this month, is poised to break records in fundraising for Parkinson’s research.
On the media circuit, fans are already buzzing about Fox’s scheduled October 10th appearance on Good Morning America, where he’ll discuss his upcoming memoir, Future Boy: Back to the Future and My Journey Through the Space-Time Continuum. The show’s preview lineup has Fox slotted for a major spot, and social media is already spinning in anticipation. Notably, Rolling Stone and IMDB confirmed last week that Fox will make his return to acting with a guest role in season three of the acclaimed Apple TV+ series Shrinking, his first on-screen role since retiring in 2020, ensuring headlines with both nostalgia and excitement.
These public moves—spanning entertainment, science, and charity—underscore Fox’s continued impact. There is some internet chatter about miracle Parkinson’s cures using offbeat medications, but major outlets and medical authorities do not back those claims, and Fox himself has not commented, suggesting these remain speculative at best. Instead, the verifiable focus is on Fox’s tireless activism, resilience, and the ever-widening legacy of his work both on and off the screen.
