The Stunt List, a platform dedicated to film industry content, has announced the exclusive release of an alternate version of Back to the Future Part 2 written by Bob Gale, the Oscar-nominated co-writer of the original Back to the Future trilogy. This special edition, released in celebration of the film’s 40th anniversary and timed for Back to the Future Day on October 21st, presents a unique narrative where the characters remain in 1967 instead of returning to 1955. The script features significant changes including George and Lorraine as hippies, Doc Brown experimenting with LSD and riding a motorcycle, Mr. Strickland working for Biff, Goldie Wilson as Marty’s attorney, and expanded roles for Dave, Linda, and Old Man Peabody. The announcement also highlights the upcoming release of ‘Back to the Future: The Complete Screenplay,’ an annotated edition of the original screenplay by Bob Gale, set for release in May 2026. This deluxe book, available in hardcover, Collector’s Edition, and Limited Edition (with only 500 signed copies), includes Gale’s annotations, call sheets, storyboards, and never-before-seen production materials. The book provides insights into the film’s creation, including deleted scenes, original character names, and behind-the-scenes trivia. Eric Moyer, co-founder of The Stunt List, praised the book as a must-have for fans and screenwriters, noting its comprehensive coverage of the script’s development and its value as a masterclass in screenwriting. The announcement concludes with information about Bob Gale’s current projects, including the Back to the Future musical currently running in London’s West End and on tour across North America, Japan, and Australia.
