CRISPIN GLOVER AS GEORGE MCFLY
Glover memorably appeared as Marty’s Brylcreem-loving father, George, in the original BTTF but parted ways with the franchise.
Glover, 51, is still remembered for his bizarre appearance on
Late Night With David Letterman in 1987, which ended with Letterman walking off the stage as Glover high-kicked the air.
“He’s definitely into being strange. Some can hang with that, and others don’t have any patience for it,” Thompson says. “The bottom line is that doesn’t matter. He was brilliant in our movie.”
Glover has continued to act in off-center parts, including the Knave of Hearts in Tim Burton’s
Alice in Wonderland (2010).
