Corey Feldman clarifies comments made as he now denies saying co-star Corey Haim 'molested him'

Warning: This article contains discussion of sexual abuse which some readers may find distressing.

Corey Feldman has slammed the suggestion that he accused his late co-star Corey Haim of 'molesting him' in a new documentary.

The child stars were firm friends who navigated their early introduction into show business together - as well as the alleged abuse they suffered at the hands of several high-profile men.

The pair, who were known as 'The Two Coreys', were sexually abused while they were children by Hollywood figures, according to Feldman.

In the 2020 documentary My Truth: The Rape of 2 Coreys, the Los Angeles-born actor said his pal Haim 'went into great detail' about the alleged attacks he suffered.

Feldman claimed that these incidents are what ultimately saw his The Lost Boys co-star spiral into drug addiction. Haim died of pneumonia in 2010 at the age of 38.

But in a new documentary titled Corey Feldman vs The World, Feldman reportedly points the finger at his childhood friend and accuses Haim of 'molesting' him.

As per Variety, the 54-year-old alleges that Haim asked him to 'mess around' while filming the 1987 film The Lost Boys.

Feldman claims that Haim said: "This is what, you know, what guys in the business do, right? You know, you suck each other’s d**ks, or you fuck around, you do this stuff'. Charlie [Sheen] told me it was OK."

Charlie Sheen has denied allegations that he abused Haim, with a spokesperson for the Two and A Half Men star previously saying: "These sick, twisted and outlandish allegations never occurred. Period."

In Corey Feldman vs The World, Feldman then reportedly says: "I called [Haim] and said, ‘Come over.’ But you know, when you have got somebody that’s trying to come onto you sexually, and you don’t want that, and you are a kid, and you are scared, you do whatever you can to stop it from happening.

"And that’s what was happening. I was being molested by Corey Haim. Truth be told."

This statement sent shockwaves through Hollywood, although Haim's mother Judy has since said there is 'no way in hell' that there is any truth to the claims and accused Feldman of 'creating another lie to poison people's heads and keep himself relevant'.

She slammed his alleged comments as 'defamatory and hurtful to my son's legacy', telling TMZ: "Corey Feldman always talks about sex and blames my kid for things that he is not here to defend himself about."

Now, Feldman has denied ever accusing Haim of 'molesting' him - as his legal team claimed that his comments in the documentary have been presented as a 'mischaracterisation' of the truth.

The actor did 'not have any involvement in' the creation of Corey Feldman vs The World, his representatives said, adding that it was made 'without his knowledge'.

A statement shared with Us Weekly explains: "The producers of the film made the film without Mr Feldman’s knowledge and obtained the footage through dishonest means.

"Mr. Feldman is investigating the source of the footage, the producer’s claimed rights to it, and the role of his name, image, and likeness.

"Mr. Feldman plans to pursue all legal options available to him once his investigation is complete."

Clarifying the comments Feldman made, the statement went on to say that the actor had claimed that Haim had made a pass at him, rather than 'molesting' him.

"Any article regarding the purported comment that Mr. Feldman claims Corey Haim ‘molested’ him is a sensationalised mischaracterisation of the statements made in the film," it continues.

"Mr. Feldman’s statement was that during the filming of The Lost Boys Mr. Haim sought to ‘mess around’ with Mr. Feldman, however, Mr. Feldman did not reciprocate his advances and contacted another party on behalf of Mr. Haim.

"Mr. Feldman’s statement that Mr. Haim ‘molested’ him was in reference to Mr. Haim’s advances, and not physical molestation.

"The film and any other current articles on this issue distort the truth and context of Mr. Feldman’s words and story. Mr. Feldman makes no claim that Corey Haim physically ‘molested’ him."
