SANTA CRUZ– “The Lost Boys” are on the verge of a resurrection from the 1980s.

A production crew from L.A. shot some B-Roll footage (supplemental or alternative footage) April 6 at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk for a “Lost Boys” TV pilot on the CW Network, according to Brigid Fuller, communications manager at the Boardwalk.

The series is based on the 1987 movie “The Lost Boys,” about two brothers who move to a new town full of vampires.

The TV pilot will be directed by Catherine Hardwicke, director of “Twilight.” She will work from a script by “Scandal” producer and writer Heather Mitchell, according to Den of Geek.

Fuller said about 30 extras were hired to go on rides, but the series doesn’t have plans or permission to do more filming on the Boardwalk. She said the decision to greenlight the pilot will be made as soon as mid-May.

The Santa Cruz Police Department sent a public announcement after receiving several calls about a “suspicious helicopter” flying over the city on Sunday. The department said it was a film crew, however, it did not confirm which film.
