Corey Feldman claimed he was supposed to portray Leonardo DiCaprio's character in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape." The actor accused Johnny Depp of pushing him out.
"I was actually cast to play Leonardo DiCaprio's role," he said on an episode of Billy Corgan's "Magnificent Others" podcast. "I never saw the film because I'm still bitter. Bitter leaf in that one. But yes, I was originally cast for that role."
"Did they push you out?" Corgan asked, and Feldman pointed all the blame on Depp.
