Is Spielberg Interested in a Goonies Sequel?

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Warner Bros, Action, Adventure, Family, Sequels, Rumors, Trailers

Twenty-five years after The Goonies hit the big screen, one of the film's actors claims there could possibly -- possibly -- be a sequel.

Corey Feldman, who starred alongside Sean Astin, Martha Plimpton and Kerri Green as Clark 'Mouth' Devereaux, claims many parties are interested reuniting for a follow-up -- including director Richard Donner and executive producer Steven Spielberg.

“We all like to see it happen, but it’s one of those stumbling blocks where no matter how much love there is ...," Feldman told The Hollywood Reporter. “I would do it if [the studio] was serious, but unfortunately they can’t seem to get it together," he explained. (Well, we all know that you would do the film, Corey -- but is Josh Brolin really hurting to do a sequel at this point?)

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Celeb News, Obituaries

UPDATE: According to the coroner, Corey Haim died as result of natural causes.

Corey Haim, the actor best known for his work in a series of ‘80s films, died today in California. He was 38 years old.

According to the Los Angeles Police Department, the Lost Boys star collapsed in his mother’s Burbank-area apartment early Wednesday morning. He was transported to Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center where he was pronounced dead a short time later.

Although an autopsy has not yet been conducted by the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office, Haim’s death is being investigated as an accidental overdose. No foul play is believed to be involved.

Trailer for Lost Boys 2

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Warner Bros, Drama, Horror, Sequels, Trailers, Upcoming Releases

UPDATE:  I stand corrected.  It turns out Corey Haim will be in the film after all, though his role is being left vague.  For all we know, he could be a corpse.

Here it is -  the moment you’ve all been waiting for:  The release of the Lost Boys 2 trailer.

The sequel not only comes out 21 years after the original, the movie is also set “in another seaside town” 21 years later.  Weirdly enough, Corey Feldman - who reprises his Edgar Frog character - looks exactly the same.  (His brother in the 1987 version, Jamison Newlander, also returns as Alan Frog.)

Although it was once believed that Corey Haim would be starring as well, he is not in this very unnecessary sequel.  (Let’s just say the guy has ‘issues’.)

And in case you wondering why the girl in the clip looks so familiar, that’s Autumn Reeser (a.k.a. Taylor Townsend from The O.C.).
