9. Fox had to shoot Back to the Future and Family Ties at the same time

Michael J. Fox couldn’t get time off from Family Ties to shoot Back to the Future, so he frequently went from set to set day and night. “All of a sudden, I came back from Christmas break and I went to work on Family Ties, and then that night I was standing in the parking lot with flaming tire tracks running between my legs—and my whole world changed. I ended up getting about three hours sleep a night for the next three or four months, because they had to get the movie out that summer.”
