Wasn't there going to be a prequel back then about where each Lost Boy came from and how they were turned and became a pack?

Yes! 

Supposedly, Joel Schumacher let Kiefer Sutherland (who plays David), read both his sequel script, The Lost Girls, and his prequel script on the set of The Lost Boys while they filmed. Kiefer liked both and was eager to do both! He doesn’t understand why Warner Brothers never made them considering The Lost Boys was in the top 5 for their best selling VHS tapes, which at the time was a HUGE part of a movies profit! 

The soundtrack also changed how soundtrack were used and marketed because Joel Schumacher was one of the first directors to really pay huge attention to soundtracks. He got his start directing music videos so music was important to him. This made the studio a ton of money as well and studios started focusing on how a soundtrack could make a money for a film as well. 

Given all these things and a good box office to boot. The sequel and prequel seemed like a sure thing, but sadly never happened. 

There has been more leaked about The Lost Girls sequel than the prequel, but I’ll tell you all I’ve heard. I haven’t gotten a hold of the prequel script, but I do hope to read it one day!!!

The prequel was going to have David, Dwayne, Paul and Marko all be played by their original actors! What I’d have given to see Brooke McCarter and Billy Wirth play Paul and Dwayne again!!!!!! They are my two favorite Vampires EVER! It would have been amazing to see all four actors together again reprising those roles! 

All four guys were going to be riding horses instead of motorcycles. That’s pretty clever! I wonder if Dwayne’s part would have been expanded upon because of Billy Wirth’s horse back riding experience? It sounds like from stuff I’ve heard that Billy Wirth has ridden since he was young, so he’d have been quite an experience rider by then. He did War Party not long after The Lost Boys and was able to show off some good horse back riding skills in that! He also rides horses in Children of Dust. Both movies are great films! Children of Dust had some DVDs that were released with a shorter version of the movie called a Good Day to Die. 

Kiefer has ridden horses in a few of his movies such as Young Guns, Young Guns II, the Cowboy Way and more. I’ve never seen any movies, tv or pictures of Brooke McCarter or Alex Winters riding horses. 

Supposedly, we were going to get to see the cave the Lost Boys lived in when it was still the loveliest resort in Santa Carla. Max owned the resort. The 1906 earthquake was going to happen during the film. 

In the original deleted ending of The Lost Boys, there was a big mural painting in the cave of Max in a straw hat with David, Dwayne, Paul and Marko. The painting was supposed to look like Victorian times and indicate the Lost Boys were still human. I’m not sure how the painting would show they were human, but that’s what I’ve heard. I guess Max turned them shortly after this, but wanted a mural showing him getting ‘his boys’. I think a roaming or panning shot over the mural showing this bit of visual story telling was supposed to be the very last shot of the film originally. I haven’t seen a consistent answer if Max was supposed to turn them before or after the earthquake of 1906. It’s unclear for how much of the movie David, Dwayne, Paul and Marko would be Vampires. Would they have been turned early on in the film, in the middle or near the end? Would their journeys have been similar to Michael Emerson’s at all or drastically different? I don’t know. I do know all of the actors were told their characters were orphans with no families as part of their backstories, so that would have been a big difference from Michael right there. 

I do really wish we could have gotten this prequel!!! We would have learned soooooo much more about our favorite four Vampires, The Lost Boys! I would have loved more insight into David, Dwayne, Paul and Marko’s characters, personalities, quirks and backstories! 

While I would have loved both The Lost Girls sequel and this prequel, I would have wanted the prequel MORE! My favorite thing about the Lost Boys has always been the Lost Boys Vampires of David, Dwayne, Paul and Marko! That’s the story I’ve always wanted more of and wanted to know more about! Most of the fandom seems to be for the Vampires, so I think that would have been a HUGE success, but alas we never got it.

Paul and Dwayne Fanart by Jayden Simone Kitch

Here’s some fantastic Paul and Dwayne sketches she did! The likeness is spot on for Paul and Dwayne! They look just like Brooke McCarter and Billy Wirth! That’s some talent she has!
