EXCLUSIVE: Andrew McCarthy‘s Hulu documentary Brats has brought back memories of the coming of age film where The Brat Pack was coined. Deadline can reveal that Sony is exploring the possibility of making a new version of St. Elmo’s Fire. This version would hinge on reuniting original cast members McCarthy, Emilio Estevez, Rob Lowe, Demi Moore, Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy and Mare Winningham.

Editor’s Note: Journalist David Blum might have forever coined The Brat Pack era, but it was Carl Kurlander who provided the reason the infamous New York article got written. St. Elmo’s Fire was a script Kurlander wrote with director Joel Schumacher, inspired by events in his life. Now an academic, Kurlander has written several guest columns for Deadline including a 35th anniversary remembrance of St. Elmo’s Fire. Why is he tapping again into those memories? He just watched Brats, the Hulu documentary that premiered at Tribeca, directed by and starring Andrew McCarthy. He was part of the St. Elmo’s Fire ensemble that felt maligned by a mag article published the week before the film was released and became a surprise hit. Here, Kurlander supplies some great dish — did you know Demi Moore‘s drug demons almost forced Joel Schumacher to replace her with the young singer Madonna? Or that Georgetown shunned the movie for immoral activity but OK’d The Exorcist because despite the vile goings on involving a possessed child, evil didn’t win? A little of that stuff would have helped McCarthy’s docu, which gets tedious as he attempts to expunge demons, even as cohorts like Moore, Rob Lowe, Emilio Estevez and Ally Sheedy seem to be humoring him on camera. After all, that film launched fine futures for them, even if the moniker stung. McCarthy paints journo Blum as a villain, but in fairness, The Brat Pack was a far more clever coinage than putting “gate” on the end of every scandal since Watergate. Blum also unwittingly etched into permanent Hollywood history the memory of those actors when they were young and gorgeous. Who wants to be forgotten?

“Wise Guy: David Chase and the Sopranos,” premiered at Tribeca Film Festival on June 13 and revealed how the late Gandolfini battled demons while playing a mob boss on the iconic HBO series. His TV wife, Edie Falco, said in the doc that Gandolfini “was a very good, kindhearted man,” but that the role “may have taken a toll on him,” according to USA Today.

Michael Nordine For viewers of a certain age — or, perhaps more likely at this point, most ages — the term “Brat Pack” evokes nostalgia at its fondest. Movies like “The Breakfast Club” and “Pretty in Pink” remain rites of passage for teenagers coming of age nearly 40 years later, and few would argue that the 1980s didn’t represent a high-water mark for teen movies.

new Brat Pack documentary on Hulu, Andrew McCarthy, 61, confronted writer David Blum, 68, about how he coined the now-iconic group title in a notorious New York Magazine cover story from 1985.At the time, Blum was doing a piece on Emilio Estevez and joined him on a night out in LA with other actors including Rob Lowe and Judd Nelson. Blum ran the Brat Pack profile that changed the lives of McCarthy, Estevez, Lowe, Nelson, Demi Moore, Anthony Michael Hall, Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy forever.

Jon Cryer, Timothy Hutton and Robert Downey Jr. are sometimes also cited as members.) The core Brat Pack movies include “The Breakfast Club,” “Pretty In Pink,” “Sixteen Candles” and “St. Elmo’s Fire.” Directed by and starring McCarthy, 61, the documentary follows McCarthy as he seeks out his former peers – some of whom he hasn’t seen in several decades — and has frank conversations with them.

“Brat Pack” – a collection of popular young actors in the 1980s — have made it clear that they weren’t, and in some cases, still aren’t, fans of the group nickname.The phenomenon started with the 1985 New York magazine cover by David Blum. He had a night out in Los Angeles with Emilio Estevez, Rob Lowe, and Judd Nelson, and decided to coin the now-iconic phrase which was inspired by the “Rat Pack,” a group of entertainers (including Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin) from the 1940s and 1950s.Estevez, Lowe, Nelson, Andrew McCarthy, Demi Moore, Anthony Michael Hall, Molly Ringwald and Ally Sheedy make up the Brat Pack, as they all appeared in the ensemble of classic ‘80s films such as “St.

turned down former co-star Andrew McCarthy’s offer to appear in the new Hulu documentary, “Brats,” about the ’80s-era group of actors. But Nelson seemingly makes a cameo — though only over the phone — at the very end of the doc. Just before the credits roll on “Brats,” McCarthy, who wrote, directed and stars in the project, is standing on a dock and answers a phone call.“Hello? Judd?” says McCarthy, 61.There’s been no confirmation that Nelson was on the other end of that phone call.
