Corey Haim Is Back, Ready To Make Amends, And Still Has Enough Money To Pay For An Ad In 'Variety' Begging For Work



Corey Haim is back, Hollywood, and he knows that he's let you down in the past by never realizing the tantalizing promise he displayed in License to Drive, Dream a Little Dream and Blown Away, but he's ready to get to work and heal the wounds caused by his long absence from your television and film sets.

Sure, The Two Coreys was picked up for a second season last week, but you know what? The superstardom afforded by headlining a basic cable reality hit is certainly nice (especially the insatiable A&E groupies), and the show's Corey-on-Corey conflicts have been well-written, but it's just no longer creatively fulfilling to keep playing this ne'er-do-well Haim character. So please, casting directors, nostalgia-obsessed network executives, and possibly insane foreign "producers" with millions of dollars to invest on the phoenix-like resurrection of their favorite 80s heartthrob, we beg of you: Let Corey show us all what he can do. Don't let all the money he spent on this nearly full-page ad in today's Variety go to waste.

Go do indie flicks. Go do theater. Go find something that doesn't make you look this fucking desperate.

I agree. Despite everything, he still has a head start above other not known at all actors, and he could easily get hired for something smaller.

Your comment makes me think of Sean Hayes who went to my school. And, Lucas which was filmed at my school.

GUUURRRRRL! I was just talking about Lisa Frank Trapper Keepers yesterday. Rainbows and unicorns FTW!

I was doodling the other Corey's name, and probably the only one. ;)

This guy had some good movies back in the 80s...hopefully he's being honest and he is 100% clean. Still, this is kind of a pathetic/desperate move.

Back in the day when I was like 11, I wrote him a letter asking him to marry me. I didn't really ever expect him to say yes, but I hoped for at least an autograph. I never got one. I hope he doesn't still have my address.

For your sake, I hope not. I hear he is looking for a couch to crash on.

why couldn't he just take that money and hire a manager/talent agency and find work the way every other wannabe actor does? could you imagine if all actors put out ads like this? lolz.

this is so weird it's funny.


and who the hell does he want to make amends with? and why?
