How old is Doc Brown supposed to be in 1985?

It's a mystery. He always had white hair, didn't he? Most people don't at 45-46.
Maybe he was an immortal old guy.

They aged Christopher Lloyd for the 1985 Doc. When we see him in 1955, he looks just as he would normally. This worked out well since we only see him in 1985 briefly.

Then in the sequel, when he goes to 2015, he gets a treatment to de-age him. This way, his 1985 version doesn't need to have the makeup to make him look older.

I've always assumed he's 65-70 in 1985 and 35-40 in 1955. Works for me.

" I started to wonder if Doc could theoretically, still be alive in 2015 "
Well my Dad was well out of High School in 1955 (he'd be 20) , and He's still alive in 2018!

still alive in 2015 of course

He's supposed to be 30 years older than he was in 1955. If that's in his 70's, I'm surprised they never even went near to touching on the fact that he is more than likely dead in 2015, I'll go further, seeing how part 3 turned out, how alarmed would he have been to see that in 2015 it looks like he disappeared 30 years ago?

I reckon he'd be born in 1910 or thereabouts, I'm sure he worked on the Manhattan Project so he'd be in his mid thirties by then and mid 40s when Marty showed up in 1955.

if you want to see an amazing great fun story about a rejuvenation clinic, check out the wild twilight zone episode "a short drink from a certain fountain", also available as radio theatre on "the twilight zone radio dramas" starring adam west from family guy, well speaking of white or grey hair, i immediately think of steve martin, he's always had grey or white hair, but i agree with what's been said on this thread, he seemed to play older and i guess that's why it works that he these days re appear in different places as emmet brown, funny how the cast (parents and biff) really are not as they appear at the beginning but rather natural in the time travel sequence, marty's mother made up to look older actually looks like today's frightenly frequent plastic surgery, kind of defeats the purpose if i'm right, there was another (though chilling) twilight zone episode in the 1950's titled "number 12 looks just like you" where in a future society everyone had undergone plastic surgery and also that made into a twilight zone radio drama, and the prophecy of the plot and narration makes the episode even more remarkable today as well as frightening and suspenseful. there is just a little bit of some swearing that occurs in at least the second part of this which seem kind of out of place for this franchise since it comes across like such a mainstream family friendly movie that i'm guessing airs a lot, at least in my country though here anything goes no matter hour, i don't really view it as a curse word and i use it myself, it's the other word for crap, right, but i know it's one of those words getting censored on foreign channels.
