Career of David Mickey Evans

By the late 1990s, Evans’ fame had faded, with films like First Kid and Ed flopping both critically and financially. With After School Special, Evans shifted to more adult-oriented humor and material, but he didn’t fare much better. He’s written and directed a number of made-for-TV and direct-to-DVD films since then, including The Sandlot 2, the sequel to the popular film The Sandlot.

During the late 90s period, he became one of the highest-paid screenwriters, selling screenplays to both Radio Flyer and The Sandlot for almost $1 million each.

David Mickey Evans was supposed to direct Radio Flyer, but because of his inexperience, he was replaced by Richard Donner. Following unsatisfactory test screenings, reshoots were required, and the film’s budget was increased from $15 million to $30 million. More fantasy sequences involving a worm man and zombies were planned in the original script, but when Evans was replaced by Richard Donner, these plans were shelved. The Sandlot earned far more favorable reviews and performed significantly better at the box office than Radio Flyer, which received largely mediocre reviews from critics.
