"Back to the Future" star Michael J Fox says his kids have not seen the cult time travel film.
The 54-year-old actor who played the popular character of Marty McFly in the 1985 time-travelling adventure says his children Sam, 26, Aquinnah and Schuyler, 20, and 13-year-old Esme with wife Tracy Pollan are not among the film fans, reported FemaleFirst.
"Ironically, for a time-travelling movie, there was a timelessness about it. Kids now like it. Though my kids haven't watched it. Or, if they have, they haven't told me," said the actor who was present at the 30th Anniversary event of the film in London.
The "Family Ties" actor who suffers from Parkinson's disease, admitted he was planning to quit acting before getting the role.
"I was thinking of working on the fish dock or joining the military like my dad. Then suddenly I found myself on a set with Steven Spielberg.
"(I was) very overwhelmed by the whole experience. The nadir and the peak of my career happened at the same time," he said.
