The ‘Jonah Hex’ actress is a huge fan of the 1987 comedy horror film – which starred Kiefer Sutherland, Corey Feldman and the late Corey Haim – and though it would be her dream role, she thinks a new version of the cult favourite would “destroy” the original.
She said: “They couldn’t remake it because it would destroy it, but I’ve always loved ‘The Lost Boys’. The female character in it s not really amazing, but if you were to turn one of the male characters into a female, I would love to do that.
“That movie has stuck with me my whole life. There’s something magic about it to me.” The 24-year-old star also spoke of her reluctance to move into more comedic roles as she doesn’t feel old enough yet.
She explained to Sky Movies magazine: “I’m wary of doing romantic comedies, you could end up doing them all the time.
“Business-wise, those movies are very safe. They’re tailored to Middle America. “But I’m 24, I don’t belong in a romantic comedy yet.
A black comedy like ‘Jennifer’s Body’ maybe, but I don’t know if I could do something like ‘The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants’.
