Alexander really didn't concern himself much with his grandfather's methods. He just knew that he was subtly manipulative and he knew he got that from his grandfather.

Perhaps the only reason that the old Creed hadn't noticed the manipulation on him is that he was way too lax with him being a kid and his kin.

Either way, their manipulative means weren't that much destructive and destroying like some others who do it.

Whatever the case, Alexander had to commend the manipulative decision to ensnare Michael J. Fox.

Just as Christopher Lloyd had been stereotyped to be Doc Brown, Michael Fox is also stereotypical to be stuck as Marty McFly.

They made each of their characters to be quite iconic but this also stumbled up to their acting career.

Of course, Alexander didn't really care much for the life of actors and whatnot. All he knows is that with Lloyd and Fox being part of the stable reprisals, the success of Back to the Future has become sturdy and steady.

With the stable factors being called out, it was natural for the unstable factors to come out next.

The rest are pretty minute in their effects but a single character and actor change has a much considerable and noticeable shift to Back to the Future.

With the Marty McFly position being filled, Alexander's research and attention were then pointed towards the McFly patriarch, George McFly.

The George McFly actor was a great controversy in the sequels after all and the replacement also happen to be quite controversial to the first film.

With Eric Stoltz being cast in the part, the George McFly controversy just got a lot more interesting with the problem compounding on it.

Ever since Alexander started pooling his attention to the film trilogy production, he has always been mindful of the troubles and problems that the original trilogy had met and solved.

This is why he was much gleaming at Eric Stoltz's presence on the cast members and the fact that he was cast as George McFly.

The Eric Stoltz problem and the George McFly controversy confounded into one and it made sense for one to worry.

In the original version, Stoltz was Universal execs choice for the Marty role with Fox being unavailable.

Filming went on but it was obvious to the producers within weeks that they had made a mistake and even Stoltz got a hunch of everything beforehand as he made it clear that the producers could recast the role if he didn't fit.

Stoltz, fresh from a turn in the dark drama Mask, brought a brooding intensity to a comedic film.

Given that he was a method actor, he insisted that the cast and crew call him "Marty" at all times to help him stay in character. He was way too deep into the role than how practicing Lloyd had been.

Stoltz frequently clashed with some of the cast and crew because of this, especially Tom Wilson, who played Biff Tannen.

The producers held Universal to their word and the recasting of the began with the role heading to Fox, who jumped at the chance.

While the deal was being hammered out, Stolz was seemingly a dead man walking on the set, as the crew, unaware of what was going on, was told to film around him for several key scenes until Stoltz and the rest of the cast was finally told he'd been dismissed.

Everyone who had seen the side-by-side comparison of Stoltz's shot scenes and Fox's performance in the final release could point out the difference and how much a disaster has been averted.

As for the George McFly controversy, it essentially boils down to the original George actor, Crispin Glover.

He was a mercurial actor who had clashed with Zemeckis during the filming of the first movie and was reportedly angry with the film's ending. Nobody even knew why he took the part in the first place if he didn't like the ending because Glover thought that 'Money shouldn't buy happiness'.

The trouble didn't end there with Glover insisting on a pay raise for the sequels, then was appalled at what he considered to be an insufficient increase when he was finally offered the pay raise.

The trouble escalated further when Zemeckis and Gale decided to use footage of Glover from the first film in the sequels, while also casting a new actor wearing prosthetics to look like Glover for a few new shots.

Thus, Glover sued the producers who eventually settled with him for more than $500,000. The lawsuit also led to a change in union rules for the Screen Actors Guild, regarding the use of an actor's likeness without proper compensation.

Essentially, the original George McFly was too much of a principled and money-grubbing artist who happen to know the dangers of 'DeepFake' before the 2010 millenials could even realize it.

Alexander could only shake his head whenever he remembered such troublesome complications.

What's worse now at the Creed version is that troublesome Eric Stoltz somehow stumbled his way through the audition list and had landed on controversial George McFly.

----

With all the factors crumbling in on each other, it made sense that Stoltz should be pulled out from the George project before everything would be compromised.

This was Alexander's thought at first but with all the Stoltz meet-ups he has done these past few days, he eventually corrected himself.

When he considered the facts and saw them from a 'pros' perspective, Eric Stoltz is just the perfect replacement for Crispin Glover.

George McFly's transition from bumbling and bullied stutterer needs a skilled actor after all. Since Stoltz is an accomplished method actor, then he should do just fine.

It clearly wasn't his problem that he was chosen as Marty McFly. The original crew just didn't properly make use of his talents.

With Glover out of the way and George McFly needing a dedicated artist to play the role, Stoltz fit in just fine. Now, he didn't need to be replaced but was 'replacing' Glover instead.

As for the 'DeepFake' problem, it probably won't come to that as Stoltz had already signed for three films with steady pay and even had his character have a much prominent showing, courtesy of the Rob and Bob making some reasonable adjustments that Alexander approved.

Although both Stoltz and Glover are dedicated artists with one being methodical and the other being an idealist.

Stoltz clashed with the Biff actor because he methodically thought they were antagonistic forces. Glover, however, clashed with the production crew because he didn't like how his character was portrayed.

Methodical Stoltz would probably just do his best in the George McFly role he was given while Glover did his 'controversies' because he wants to change George into how he idealizes the character should be.

If tasked to choose between the two, then Alexander would choose the less troublesome which is Stoltz.

As of now, methodical Stoltz is still a 'deep' into the meek George McFly character, that he was weirding everyone out.

Whatever the case, he was the biggest shift in the cast members, which was stable enough to not trouble Alexander.

Being a Chaos Butterfly did change things up but it strangely stabilized everything that could be troublesome in the new BttF.
