The Lost Boys Cast: What Do They Look Like Now?
The Lost Boys Cast have come a long way since the classic eighties horror film first came to our screens!
Similar to Yours, Mine And Ours and The Railway Children, it was loved by all.
It was pretty scary in places, but was gentle enough for teens to enjoy without it being too much – it was certainly no Texas Chainsaw Massacre!
The Lost Boys was great in that it used teens in the lead roles so that its audience could relate to it and picture ourselves being involved in the same, or a similar, story!
Let’s find out what these lost boys have been up to since then…

He was replaced by Billy Campbell.
You may not know this, but Patric began dating actress Julia Roberts days after she cancelled her wedding to Kiefer Sutherland in 1991. Can you believe it?
That’s right, Patric dated the ex of his Lost Boys co-star. Awkward.

Alongside his co-star, Corey Feldman, the pair were known collectively as The Two Coreys.
Haim was troubled by drug addiction throughout his later career.
He became addicted to painkillers while on the set of Without Malice, which at the time he hoped would be his big comeback.
He went to rehab a total of 15 times throughout his adult life, and tragically died of pneumonia on the 10th March 2010.
At the time of his death he and Feldman were working on a sequel of the 80’s classic License to Drive together called License to Fly, a concept of Haim’s.
