Corey Haim Returns for Lost Boys 2: The Tribe!

We recently reported that Warner Brothers was so happy with the finished cut of The Lost Boys 2: The Tribe that they decided to shoot some extra scenes for the film. We recently heard a rumor that those scenes were the deleted script pages that revolved around Corey Haim's character Sam Emerson. Tonight, Moviehole confirmed that Corey Haim is indeed back for reshoots on the sequel, and will be sharing the stage with Corey Feldman for the first time since 1997.

The writer of the film, Hans Rodionoff, got in contact with Moviehole and stated:

"Sam Emerson was in the earliest drafts of the screenplay, and when it looked like we weren't going to be able to cast Corey Haim, I begrudgingly took the scenes out and wrote around the holes. Recently, I got a call that said that Corey would be able to do the scenes, and Warner Bros. was happy enough with the movie that they felt like spending a little extra to work Sam Emerson into the movie would be money well spent. So, I dug back into my old files and found the deleted scenes with Sam Emerson and sent them to PJ. I really feel like Sam Emerson is a crucial part of the Lost Boys legacy, and I'm glad that his scenes will end up in the film."

The film is scheduled for release this summer. Warner Brothers is eyeing a possible July debut, but they still haven't decided if this is going straight to the screen or straight to DVD.

Lost Boys: The Tribe was released July 29th, 2008 and stars Tad Hilgenbrink, Angus Sutherland, Autumn Reeser, Gabrielle Rose, Corey Feldman, Shaun Sipos, Merwin Mondesir, Kyle Cassie. The film is directed by P.J. Pesce.

    Let's hope he can still act...(I'm a bit worried given his last few years of TV appearances). But it is deserved.

    Let's just hope that Sam's wardrobe has changed...and that he takes the Rob Lowe poster off of his closet door.

    Cheers

    lol Rad, yeah that must have been a hard role for Chunk to shake, even though he had a talent for literally shaking his rolls, lol. I think Sloth should come back in his own horror movie where Chunk gets his fat handed too him and Sloth goes on a killing rampage. They could cast Kane Hodder, lol.

    Rumour has it Chunk was never able to take himself out of character and continued to roam the caves with his boyfriend sloth!! next time you walk past a sewer, have a listen, the odd time you might hear him moan with ecstasy as sloth lathers at his back!!

    now remember,..... it's only a rumour!!

    What the film-makers should do is, get "Lost Boys 2" into Horror film festivals at least (I.E. Screamfest) & get the buzz out there!

    yea, I wish this would hit theaters, it sucks that the advertising for this couldn't produce a large enough interest to put this on the big screen

    The two Corey's are back for vampire blood.... awesome! But what's this straight to DVD business? I think Lost Boys has enough of a fan base for a sequel to do well in the theaters.... too bad Kiefer died in the first, I can see he coming back as the head vampire.
