‘Teen Witch’ Star Robyn Lively Posts Rare Throwback With Two Beloved ’80s Icons
Robyn Lively has been delighting fans for decades, from her iconic role as Louise in Teen Witch to her heartfelt return as Jessica Andrews in Cobra Kai. But this week, she took a moment to reflect on one of her lesser-known films from the ’90s, 1995’s Dream a Little Dream 2, where she starred alongside two of the era’s most beloved teen idols, Corey Feldman and the late Corey Haim.
In a recent Instagram post, Lively shared a behind-the-scenes snapshot from the set, beaming alongside Feldman and Haim. “Let’s not forget about this one guys, oh yeah. Take me back to this direct to video GEM circa 1995. Some of my best work ;) Love these boys always and forever. Forever and always.” Fans were quick to flood the comment section of her post with memories and love for both Coreys and Lively’s tribute feels all the more poignant given Haim’s passing in 2010.

Released direct-to-video in 1995, Dream a Little Dream 2 followed the misadventures of Bobby and Dinger, who discover a pair of high-tech sunglasses that allow one wearer to control the other’s actions. It was the kind of wild, offbeat comedy that only the ’90s could deliver, and for fans of the Two Coreys, it became a cult favorite. Lively played the role of a young woman caught up in their high-tech chaos, holding her own in a film full of hijinks.

Though the movie didn’t receive the same attention as some of her other projects, it’s clear that the experience left a lasting impression on Lively. She’s no stranger to working with big names, having gotten her start in the late ’70s and appearing in projects like The Karate Kid Part III, Twin Peaks and Doogie Howser, M.D. Her family is Hollywood royalty in its own right, with sister Blake Lively and husband Bart Johnson also making their mark in the industry.
In recent years, Lively has continued to stay active both onscreen and off. In 2024, she appeared in the romantic drama It Ends With Us, playing Ms. Byland alongside her sister Blake, who starred in and also produced the film. Earlier this year, she shared her support for Blake following her speech at the Time100 Gala, standing by her sister during a very public legal battle.
