Overview
Biff Tannen is a villain from the
Back to the Future film series portrayed by actor
Tom F. Wilson. He has also appeared in a number of games based on the films. At the start of the film trilogy, he's a jerk that lords over
George McFly, the father of series protagonist
Marty McFly, but his influence over the McFlys and the rest of
Hill Valley shifts wildly as his life is changed through Marty's time traveling adventures.
Relatives
Biff has an ancestor named Buford Tannen that lived in the Hill Valley of 1885 seen in
Back to the Future Part III. Buford was an outlaw that, after a dispute with Doc Brown, shot him to death, forcing Marty to travel back to the old west in order to mount a rescue. Like Biff, Buford has a strong dislike of manure.
In the first episode of
Back to the Future: The Game, it is revealed that Biff has a daughter named Tiff. However, Tiff Tannen is not actually seen or heard on screen. He also has an ancestor named
Kid Tannen, who ran an illegal Alcohol distribution point.
