Marisa Liston, Lionsgate’s president of worldwide marketing for the studio’s film group, is exiting her role, as is EVP of marketing David Edwards, TheWrap has learned. A search is underway by the studio for their replacements.

Looks like the recent presidential election spurred Corey Feldman to action when it comes to his love life.
The 45-year-old actor is engaged to his girlfriend of four years, Courtney Anne, Et can confirm. Corey proposed last weekend in Palm Springs, California, and admits in a new interview that part of the decision is because he didn't want to take the chance that 27-year-old Courtney -- who's Canadian -- could be deported. The Goonies star proposed with a handwritten note reading, "Will you marry me?," with two check boxes reading "yes" or "no."
Thankfully, Courtney checked the "yes" box.
Corey tells Et, "My son Zen and Courtney have a great relationship and they love each other very much. His mother Susie got remarried 2 years ago, so I think this was an expected and natural progression for him. So when I asked him if he would be happy about it, his answer was 'it's about time.' That was...

Corey Feldman rose to fame as a child star and has been in the spotlight ever since, but it’s a life the actor doesn’t want for his own son.
“I was basically a slave child,” Feldman tells People in this week’s issue. “I started working at 3 years old, and it wasn’t my choice.”
Issues began to build up within his family and at age 15, the star accused his parents of stealing nearly $1 million from him; soon after, he was granted emancipation by a judge. Feldman later revealed in his 2013 memoir,...

DVD Releases: 6/15/2010: When The Horseman Meets The Stepfather, Feel the Supernatural Terror Inside
It's a good week for Blu-ray player owners as a batch of old favorites is being re-released on the format including Darkman, The Stepfather (the original), Park Chan-wook's Vengeance Trilogy, and our pick of the week, Supernatural: The Complete First Season.
Also bowing on regular DVD on June 15th are Arnold Cassius' critically panned Animals; an uncut, uncensored, and fully restored version of 1973's Horror Hospital that includes a revealing new commentary with producer Richard Gordon; two Japanese horror tales, Roommate and Slaughter Island; and a bloody psychological thriller starring husband and wife duo Corey and Susie Feldman entitled Terror Inside.
Our *almost* pick of the week is the unflinchingly brutal The Horseman, but honestly, it's much more a dark, violent drama than a true horror movie although fans of the genre will certainly find much to love, including an amazing performance by Peter Marshall as an ordinary man...

Radaronline has a video interview with Susie Feldman, the estranged wife of actor Corey Feldman. She tells Radar that she has spoken with her husband and "he's not dong very well at all. This is the second life-long friend he's lost in 8 months. I spoke to him and we cried together on the phone. He's strong but he's really sad right now."
Feldman was a long-time friend of Michael Jackson, who we presume is the life-long friend to which Susie was referring.
Susie also says that Haim's mother Judy is really torn apart by the whole ordeal, which is probably an understatement considering her son has just died and she is battling cancer.
Finally, Susie said of Corey's passing, "He was a tortured soul who hopefully has found some peace."

Actor Corey Feldman has turned to his childhood pal and Lost Boys co-star Corey Haim for support as he struggles through his divorce from wife Susie Sprague.
Feldman admits he's "gutted" and "heartbroken" about his marriage breakdown, after he was slapped with divorce papers from the Playboy pin-up last week (ends30Oct09) - just days before their seventh wedding anniversary.
Sprague has also filed for sole custody of their son Zen, five.
Feldman briefly fell out with Haim over his old friend's drug problems, but the pair has since patched up its differences and have turned to one another for comfort.
In a post on his website, Feldman writes, "He (Haim) called to make a truce... I still love the guy."
The rekindled friendship is also helping Feldman through the pain of losing his one-time pal Michael Jackson in June.
A source tells the National Enquirer, "Feldman was hit with a double whammy - the divorce filing and the death of close friend Michael Jackson - and Haim has been there to give him a shoulder to cry on.
"They've been through hundreds of battles - including drug problems, divorce and personal and professional jealousy. But the Coreys are still there for each other."
The two stars appeared together in a reality TV show last year, which also featured Sprague.

Former child star Corey Feldman has spoken of his pain over wife Susie's decision to file for divorce - insisting he is "deeply hurt and saddened" by the breakdown of their marriage.
The Goonies actor married Playboy pin-up Susie Sprague in 2002, and the couple has a five-year-old son, Zen.
Sprague filed for divorce earlier this month, citing irreconcilable differences and stating she would seek full custody of their child.

In a statement, a rep for the star says, "Corey is deeply hurt and saddened by this unexpected change in their relationship, and has done nothing to contribute to the demise of the marriage."
The statement adds, "(Feldman is) hopeful that he and Susie can work to resolve this quickly and amicably, and he is fully committed to doing what is best for the welfare of their son."...
