Michael J. Fox Candidly Details Worsening Parkinson’s, Says He Hopes to Die Peacefully

The new Sunday Times interview offers a stark update on his condition after decades living with early‑onset Parkinson’s.

Overview

  • Fox, 64, says he would prefer to simply not wake up one day rather than die in a dramatic accident as his disease progresses.
  • He describes daily life as increasingly hard, noting he can walk but finds it unsafe and is frequently seen using a wheelchair at public events.
  • Over roughly three years he suffered multiple injuries linked to falls, including a broken elbow and hand, a serious hand infection, a shoulder replacement, and a fractured cheekbone.
  • Diagnosed at 29, he continues to engage the public through new work, discussing his memoir Future Boy and reflecting on decades of advocacy.
  • Media reports say he is set to guest‑star in the next season of Apple TV+ series Shrinking, extending his selective return to screen roles.
