When the actor was asked what his younger self would think of where he is now, he replied, “My younger self wouldn’t know all the struggles I went through to be here. He just had the time of his life to be a kid, to be on a set, to be on a pirate ship, to go on a waterslide. But just before this evening started, Corey Feldman, one of my Goonie brothers, called me.”
“I was talking to Kerri Green, and of course tonight Jeff Cohen, who is my entertainment attorney. [and played Chunk in the film], is here with me. He was in the audience. I owe them all so much. Every one of them is so happy. Sean [Astin] reached out, Josh [Brolin]Martha [Plimpton], and we are still linked. We are a forever family. Goonies never say die,” he added.
