"He said I was a junkie and that he didn't work with junkies," Feldman said Depp told producers on the film, later adding, "Who knows what would have happened?"

Corey Feldman recently appeared on Billy Corgan’s “Magnificent Others” podcast (via Entertainment Weekly) and claimed that Johnny Depp got him fired off “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape,” Lasse Hallström’s 1993 drama about a grocery store clerk and his dysfunctional family.

In “What’s Eating Gilbert Grape,” the coming-of-age drama directed by Lasse Hallström, Depp plays a grocery store clerk who cares for his family, including his disabled younger brother Arnie (DiCaprio). The film also stars Juliette Lewis, Mary Steenburgen, John C. Reilly and Darlene Cates.
