While it has been alleged that Jackie Earle Haley has signed a three picture deal to play Freddy Krueger, the director of the yet to be released first film, Samuel Bayer, has said he will not come back for another stroll down Elm Street. When interviewed by /Film, Bayer said:

MySpace released a new poster for A Nightmare on Elm Street today. It looks a lot like the teaser we were given a few months back, but Freddy is a little clearer and we get less glove action. I'm still trying to understand why Krueger's other hand isn't burnt. As previously mentioned, a new trailer will debut in front of The Crazies. It will also debut on MySpace a day early.

Shock Till You Drop posted two long articles about the upcoming A Nightmare on Elm Street remake. The first is entitled The New Krueger on Elm Street: Jackie Earle Haley and the second Set Visit: A Nightmare Reborn on Elm Street, both written by Managing Editor Ryan Rotten. You can check out both by following the links.

Fans can check out a new trailer for A Nightmare on Elm Street that will be shown in front of The Crazies, in theaters on February 26. There is also word that some new TV spots will be airing on Tuesday (2-22-10) during the Winter Olympics. We will keep you updated.

The creators of the Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy are looking for "uber fans" to be part of their documentary.

"We're looking for the biggest, most die-hard Freddy fans who have created shrines to Freddy ... inked their bodies in crazy Krueger ways ... or, better yet, turned their passion for this enduring horror franchise into amazing original works of art."

Freddy Krueger was named the top horror villain by the readers of SFX magazine.

Jam! Showbiz writes: "Wes Craven's disfigured child killer Freddy Krueger has been named the ultimate horror villain in a new poll. The A Nightmare On Elm Street bad guy, who terrorized Johnny Depp in the original 1984 picture, has topped a survey by SFX magazine, ahead of Pinhead from the Hellraiser movie series and murderous Michael Myers in Halloween."

TV Guide Magazine has learned that Robert Englund will be playing a "creepy custodian" on an upcoming episode of the TV show Bones.

The slasher-themed episode is set to air this spring. "The story finds jaded Brennan (Emily Deschanel) planning to skip her high school reunion, until a murder sends her and Booth (David Boreanaz) to the scene to investigate."

As we begin to countdown the days until Nightmare on Elm Street 2010 arrives, a ton of new pictures have mader their way online. Most of them are from the original trailer, but it's a slow news day, so here ya go.
