So actor Eric Stoltz is celebrating his 54th Birthday today. Now most of us remember him as Rocky Dennis in "Mask" with Cher, but I'm a big "Back to the Future" fan. Did you know he was originally cast as the lead in that movie ????

Eric was the original star in the classic movie "Back to the Future". But after 5 weeks of shooting with him in the lead director Robert Zemeckis felt he wasn't right for the part and fired him and replaced him with Micheal J. Fox. Of course the rest is movie history.

 

I just came across this video and was really surprised to learn that despite the change Eric Stoltz is still seen in "Back to the Future".
