For anyone who grew up watching Corey Feldman sprint through the woods in Stand by Me or charge through the Goonies' caves, Monday's news was quite a shock. The 54-year-old actor was rushed to a Los Angeles hospital after suffering a medical emergency aboard a flight from Chicago to LAX, met at the gate by paramedics and transported by ambulance for evaluation and treatment. By Tuesday, the scare had a name: a severe case of food poisoning.
Feldman's publicist confirmed to USA Today that he 'is doing much better and is now out of the hospital,' and that doctors had ruled out the more serious possibilities. Initial reports from TMZ, citing a source close to Feldman, noted that a physician who happened to be traveling on the same flight examined him mid-air and recommended paramedics meet the plane upon landing, suspecting the cause might be pancreatitis or gallstones. Tests cleared both. 'Corey wants to thank everyone for all of the love and well wishes,' his publicist said. 'He has definitely seen a lot of the messages and really appreciates everything.'
In an X post late Monday evening, Feldman told fans the experience was 'def scary' but that all signs pointed toward recovery. The flight home had followed what should have been a celebratory weekend: Feldman had been in the Midwest as part of the Stand by Me 40th anniversary tour, appearing alongside costars Jerry O'Connell and Wil Wheaton at The Chicago Theatre on June 14. The live tour, which had run for months across the country, combined a big-screen screening of the 1986 classic with a live, moderated reunion conversation among the surviving cast. It carried added weight this year asdirector Rob Reiner, who died in December 2025, had been involved in early anniversary plans with the trio before his passing.

— Corey Feldman (@Corey_Feldman) June 16, 2026Before heading to Chicago, Feldman made a personal detour, posting to Instagram that he had stopped at Michael Jackson's childhood home in Gary, Indiana, to pay his respects to the late singer, a reflection of the bond between the two that Feldman has written about at length in his 2013 memoir Coreyography.

Feldman is already looking ahead. His publicist says he is set to release a new single, 'What Am I Here 4,' on June 22, and has two birthday performances scheduled in Southern California for July 25 and 26. For a performer who has spent much of his adult life navigating adversity in public, including the loss of longtime collaborator Corey Haim and years of advocacy around his own experiences of abuse as a child actor, the ability to step back onstage less than two weeks after a hospitalization feels characteristic of the resilience he's shown over the years.
