Michael J. Fox wouldn’t necessarily turn down the right acting opportunity if it came his way.

Fox, who was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in 1991, said he was retiring from acting in 2020, having found clarity in the 2019 film Once Upon A Time In Hollywood from a particular “scene where Leonardo DiCaprio‘s character can’t remember his lines anymore.”

“He goes back to his dressing room and he’s screaming at himself in the mirror,” he recalled to Empire magazine last May. “Just freaking insane.”

Fox, who was working on The Good Fight at the time, told that outlet that he “had this moment where [he] was looking in the mirror and thought, ‘I cannot remember it anymore. Well, let’s move on.'”

“It was peaceful,” he added.

However, while speaking with Entertainment Tonight this week prior to his foundation’s A Country Thing Happened On The Way To Cure Parkinson’s event, he mused about the possibility of returning to acting.

“If someone offers me a part and I do it and I have a good time, great,” he shared, adding that his 2023 documentary STILL: A Michael J. Fox Movie “was a big thrill.”

When asked if he would “do acting again,” he replied, “I would do acting if something came up that I could put my realities into it, my challenges, if I could figure it out.”

Just prior to making these remarks, he noted that his “goals are always shifting,” and highlighted that his “biggest goal” was raising his family, as well as serving the Michael J. Fox Foundation, which he founded in 2000 to help find a cure for Parkinson’s.

His advocacy has been praised by many, including Martin Scorsese, whose wife also battles the disease.

STILL, which debuted at Sundance last January and landed on Apple TV+ last May, follows Fox’s career and life trajectory as he navigates his Parkinson’s diagnosis. The doc garnered four Emmys and earned Fox a Lifetime Achievement Award at the Spring 2023 Museum of the Moving Image Awards last June. During his acceptance speech, he credited director Davis Guggenheim, who, unlike other directors, understood that Fox still has “so many great things in [his] life.”

“I don’t have a weepy, sad life,” he shared. “I have this thing that happened [to me] that really sucks, but put me in a position to do other things that were effective and have perhaps made things better.”

STILL: A Michael J. Fox Movie is streaming on Apple TV+.
