Michael J. Fox returning to TV with new US sitcom

London: Michael J. fox will return to the screens later this year with his new comedy show `The Michael J. Fox show`.

This would be the first lead role for the actor since he quit Spin City more than a decade ago, the Sun reported.

But the 52-year-old is now gearing up for the new US sitcom, which is said to be loosely based on his life. The series sees the dad-of-four playing former news anchor Mike Henry, who returns to work after quitting due to Parkinson`s. ANI
