Michael J. Fox reunited with Back To The Future III costar Matt Clark in final meeting before his death at 89

The Back To The Future actor Matt Clark had a reunion with one of his former costars prior to his death at age 89 on Sunday.

One of the Back To The Future III star's last public appearances was connecting with his castmate Michael J. Fox last year.

Clark joined in for the Back To The Future reunion at the Dallas Fan Expo last year to celebrate the film's 40th anniversary, per TMZ.

He reportedly caught up with Fox backstage before later joining in on the Q&A with the cast of the beloved movie series. 

Clark is best known for starring in the third installment of the Back to the Future film series. 

He played the role of Chester the bartender in the Wild West version of Hill Valley set in 1885.

He famously witnessed the battle between Marty McFly (Fox) and Buford 'Mad Dog' Tannen (Thomas F. Wilson) in front of the Palace Saloon.

Clark died from complications following back surgery, his wife Sharon Mays told Variety.

His daughter, producer Amiee Clark, also told The Hollywood Reporter he broke his back a few months ago. 

Clark was committed to his decades-spanning career in film, television and theater. 

He worked on a number of roles in the Western genre including Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, The Life and Times of Judge Roy Bean, Jeremiah Johnson and The Outlaw Josey Wales. 

'I just loved 'em,' Clark said in a 1991 interview, per The Hollywood Reporter. 

'Just like you always wanted to do as a little kid, you put on chaps and boots and tie on spurs that jingle when you walk.' 

Clark has worked with fellow beloved stars Clint Eastwood and John Wayne. 

He appeared in The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension and in shows like Bonanza, Kung Fu and Dynasty. 

Clark also directed and helmed the 1988 feature film Da, which followed a New York playwright summoned to Ireland to bury his father. 

'He was the kind of actor that defined Hollywood filmmaking in its greatest era,' Hacks director Gary Rosen said in a statement obtained by The Hollywood Reporter. 

Rosen referred to late actor as 'the utterly unique character player who made every scene he appeared in memorable, often stealing them from stars like Rod Steiger, Robert Redford, Clint Eastwood and John Wayne.'

While honoring Clark, he added: 'His roles in In the Heat of the Night, Jeremiah Johnson, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Cowboys, Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid, among many others, helped to elevate those films to classic status. 

'He leaves the stage, but his performances will be remembered forever,' he added.

The family of the beloved actor told outlets in a statement that Clark felt 'lucky' for his genre-spanning career. 

His family called him an 'actor's actor' and added that 'he died the way he lived, on his terms.' 

Clark is survived by his wife Sharon Mays and additional family members.
