"Back to the Future II and III"

Actor: Jeffrey Weissman.

Jeffrey Weissman is a seasoned actor with some impressive credits under his belt. They include Back to Future II and III, Pale Rider and many more. 

Jeffrey's story in the Back to the Future franchise is interesting, complicated and fascinating.  Crispin Glover who played George McFly in the original Back to the Future wanted one million dollars and creative control of the script. This request was denied and Crispin was out as George McFly.  Enter Jeffrey Weissman. We talk a bunch of Back to the Future, he shares clips and photos from the set and so much more.

Jeffrey Weissman has been performing as an actor since taking to the stage in 1972. He started in film in 1977, Jeffrey has co-starred in dozens of film and television productions. He had been screen testing for leads in various films during the early 1980's, and landed his first co-star role in 1982 in George Miller's "Nightmare at 30,000 Feet" episode of Twilight Zone the Movie. Jeffrey is best known for playing Teddy Conway in Clint Eastwood's Pale Rider (1985) and taking over the George McFly role in the "Back to the Future" sequels.
