Jon Cryer Jokes Andrew McCarthy Was a 'D*ck' During '80s 'Pretty in Pink' Shoot

Were you Team Duckie or Team Blane?

Those are still fighting words to fans of the 1986 film "Pretty in Pink," and the great debate was continued in a tongue-in-cheek way during a hilarious Q&A following Friday's TriBeCa Film Festival premiere of the documentary "Brats."

The film, directed by Brat Packer Andrew McCarthy, explores all the negative baggage the term "Brat Pack" loaded onto the shoulders of the young actors it was invented to describe, mainly Emilio Estevez, Rob Lowe, Judd Nelson, Ally Sheedy, Demi Moore and McCarthy.

Cryer, who vehemently denies he was ever a true part of the Brat Pack in the film, appeared onstage with McCarthy, Moore, Sheedy and others after the screening, taking the opportunity to playfully settle a score with his "Pretty in Pink" co-star.

"When we had done 'Pretty in Pink' together, we did not get along," he deadpanned. "Mostly because he was a d*ck."

After a roar of laughter from the Gen X-heavy crowd, he continued, "But he was going through a lot of stuff at that time that I did not know about, as was I. So when his name came up on my phone... He does not block his name on his phone — it comes right up. And you're just like, 'Oh. That guy.'"

Cryer explained they'd previously buried the hatchet when they randomly ran into each other in the green room at "The View."

"I apologized," a grinning McCarthy replied, clearly playing along.

"A little," Cryer went on, twisting the knife. "But it was lovely, because within a moment it was just so clear that we were teenagers and that does not define who we are now."

When it was her turn to speak, Moore offered, "Well, I didn't think he was a d*ck..." to which Cryer muttered, "He wasn't a d*ck to you."

Getting in on the joke, Moore conceded, "He was aloof... He was."

“Extra’s” Mona Kosar Abdi was with the stars on the red carpet at the doc’s premiere, where Jon explained, "We wanted to be good, serious actors and once we were all kind of labeled brats it sort off turned the dial in a way that made us all feel like, 'Well wait, what are we here for?'"

He added of him and McCarthy, "We hadn't spoken in 30 years except they did an interview of him on the anniversary DVD in which he said, 'Yeah, I didn't like him because he was really needy.'" I saw that and I was like, 'What?!'"

Cryer joked, "I should have said in my interview, 'He was kind of a d**k" because he kind of was at the time, and he admits it."

When Mona spoke with Andrew, she asked if he made amends with some of the other stars.

McCarhty said, "I don't know that we need to make amends it is just so nice to see that none of that mattered anymore."

"Brats," which was inspired by McCarthy's memoir "Brat: An '80s Story," includes interviews by McCarthy with Moore, Cryer, Ally Sheedy, Emilio Estevez, pop culture experts and — in a riveting exchange — with writer David Blum, the man who not so innocently coined the term "Brat Pack," which had consequences that are reverberating 39 years after his New York magazine cover story appeared.
