'I didn't want to play the role of a bully': Thomas F Wilson opens up on working in 'Back To Future'

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Thomas F Wilson shared his experience of playing a tough guy in the famous ‘Back to Future’ flick and how different it is from the man he is.

"[I] didn't want to play the role of a bully," he said in his latest YouTube video.

"'I'm gonna kick your ass.' It had to be my approach. It had to be. I don't even like to say 'ass,' I say 'a double scribble.' The role was of a bully. I'd never played a bully before. I didn't want to play the role of a bully. I've been pushed around by bullies my whole life," he added.

Thomas F Wilson was bullied as a child

Wilson revealed he was quite often bullied in his childhood as he was “as thin as a twig," reports People.

"I watched Columbo and Starsky & Hutch, [I thought] when you get punched in the face, you get knocked unconscious. Turns out, you just cry and have an asthma attack and give the kid your bike," he joked.

"I hate bullies," Wilson continued, adding "Jesus wants me to love everyone. Everyone is my brother, my sister. My parents, they taught me to approach everyone with compassion. Smile on your brother. Everyone get together, try to love one another right now. I hate bullies."

The star titled his recent clip ‘Humbly Super Famous.' "I was really taken (by the fact) that they're not trying to do us. They're trying to do a new thing," he said, adding "It's an independent piece based on the same set of ideas and characters."

Thomas F Wilson  explains cultural aspect of 'Back to Future'

Previously on the ‘Back to Future’ movie, he said, "Of course, most of them were positive, and most people understand the movie, but there were plenty where the guys would want to put me in a headlock, or push me around a bit, or get into a little tussle with 'that tough guy from Back To The Future, because he’s not that tough after all'. Well, I’m not that tough after all, because I’m an actor; because it’s pretend!”

"And I think that social media, the greater intimacy, maybe — I mean, part of it is false intimacy, but part of it’s real intimacy; you can go and see things about an actor, that’s kind of why I do the YouTube thing, to present, ‘this is me as a person’, that the audience, now, the pop cultural audience, is a more sophisticated audience and a more multi-faceted audience," he added.

Wilson often reconnects with co-stars Christopher Lloyd and Michael J Fox.
