Feldman and Haim were child actors during the 1980s; the two were close friends. Both of them grew up in Jewish families and had a passing interest in Numerology.[1] They almost even share the same lucky number[2] – Feldman’s is 22, while Haim wore 222 on a chain around his neck.[3][4] The Two Coreys appeared in a total of nine films together, including The Lost Boys (1987).[5]
Becoming a brand, The Two Coreys achieved mainstream fame and notoriety as teen idols, but each later experienced a career downturn due to drug use.[6]
The Two Coreys, a reality show about the two actors, aired on the A&E Network from 2007 to 2008.[7]
Following a long battle with drug addiction, Haim died of pneumonia in 2010.[8]
In 2020, Feldman released My Truth: The Rape of 2 Coreys. The documentary explores the friendship between The Two Coreys and asserts that both were sexually abused as children in the entertainment industry.[9][10][11]
