  • American actor Michael J. Fox said he is increasingly suffering from Parkinson’s disease.
  • Fox is best known for starring in the ’80s ‘Back to the Future’ movie series.
  • Talk to Bild am Sonntag about his illness.

Fox was 29 years old when he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. “Things are getting harder, every day it’s getting tougher,” said the 61-year-old from Bild am Sonntag. His family worries, for example, if he falls. “But other than that, I don’t get any sympathy.”

Apple TV has now produced a documentary, Still, about the life of Michael J. Fox. He said, “When I saw the movie, it shocked me. My face looks so empty and expressionless sometimes.” He is not always aware of what he looks like. “It doesn’t bother me, but it’s intense when you see it on screen.”
