Statement from Corey Feldman:
"I am more than an actor. I am an icon.. an institution." Haha!! OH. MY.
"I feel that I need to address some of the statements that have been made in reference to Corey Haims and my friendship and his participation in Lost Boys 2. I have always considered Corey Haim a brother and dear friend and have always been there for him. Although I am deeply saddened that he has decided not to participate in Lost Boys 2, it was strictly his decision. For the record, I was not willing to go forward with any production or deal until I was assured that Corey Haim was onboard. I received confirmation from my representation that Haim had announced that he was officially attached to Lost Boys 2.
After starting production in Vancouver, I learned that Haim had chosen to pull out of the project. The reasons for his decisions are his and his alone. Although I am saddened by Haims departure, I am enjoying working on the film and am very excited about working with my Frog Brother Jamison Newlander and to carry the torch forward. I am very proud to be part of this highly anticipated sequel for Warner Brothers and feel confident that we are making a film that the fans will welcome as a complimentary addition to the franchise."
After some of us unfortunately saw the episode (or, any episode) of the A&E Show The Two Corey's where Corey Haim breaks down in tears over not being included in the Warner Brothers sequel of The Lost Boys, it is now being reported that he was asked to be in it. Now, he has pulled out because he does not want to participate in the drug testing for the movie. Wow I'm shocked! Who would have guessed! Ha Ha!
