[Posted 8:40 a.m.] Actor Corey Haim, who appeared in a number of movies during the 1980s, died early Wednesday of a possible drug overdose, Los Angeles police said. Haim is most famous for his roles in the 1980s films "License To Drive" and "The Lost Boys." Haim and actor Corey Feldman starred in several popular films together, including "License To Drive" and "Dream a Little Dream," and became one of the hottest actor teams in Hollywood. Haim's drug abuse took over his life and helped ruin his career. He made a comeback in 2006 in the reality series "The Two Coreys" with Corey Feldman. The successful show lasted two seasons, but Feldman said he refused to do a third season because of Haim's continued drug use. |
