In 1989, he reprised his role in '' Back to the Future Part II'', a year later, he appeared in ''Back to the Future Part III'' as a member of Needles' gang.

It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter.
