Jerry O'Connell is reacting to his "Stand By Me" co-star Wil Wheaton's revelation that he was abused at home during his time filming the 1986 classic.
O'Connell, 47, who was one of Wheaton's co-stars in the coming-of-age film, expressed sympathy for Wheaton, whom he called a "great friend," while appearing on Wednesday's episode of "The Talk." "That film was 35 years ago. I had no idea he was feeling this when we were doing this film," the actor said.More Related News
