Biography
17 years old in the first movie, Marty is very close friends with Dr. Emmett Brown, an eccentric scientist. He unwillingly becomes the first human time traveler, when he accidentally activates the time machine DeLorean. From this moment, he goes through several adventures in the past, where he meets his family and changes history, sometimes for the best, sometimes for the worst.

Marty is brave, calm, and cunning. Despite all the crazy situations he goes through, he always reacts with humor, in contrast to Doc's seriousness. Marty's main problem is that he lets no one call him a coward, and gets often in trouble because of his arrogance. Yet, he later learns to be more modest and to ignore insults. Marty is labeled as a slacker and an outsider in Hill Valley California.

By 2015, Marty is destined to have married his high school girlfriend Jennifer (married since 1994), with whom he'll have two kids, Marlene (born in 1996) and Marty Jr. (born in 1998) and he did become a famous rock star. In 2099, his music lived on forever as a rock legend who is bigger than Elvis Presley.
