Michael J. Fox Opens Up About His Remarkable Life and Battle With Parkinson's in New Documentary

Michael J. Fox struggled early in his acting career but found success in 1980s hits like Family Ties and Back to the Future before being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease at 29.
A new documentary, Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie, chronicles Fox's life, acting career, diagnosis, and advocacy work through candid interviews and behind-the-scenes footage.
Fox founded The Michael J. Fox Foundation, which has raised over $2 billion for Parkinson's research, though Fox has suffered numerous injuries from falls and health issues related to the disease.
Fox remains optimistic but realistic about his prognosis, citing either a cure for Parkinson's or "being a pickle" in 20 years, and has found purpose in advocacy and family.
The documentary aims to show Fox's humanity, flaws, and strengths to overcome stereotypes about people with disabilities.
