Platinum Dunes will be giving a sneak peek of A Nightmare on Elm Street at the 2009 San Diego Comic-Con. The Elm Street panel will take place on July 24, between 10:15 and 12:30. No word on what footage they will be showing or who will be attending, but we will let you know as soon, and if, it is announced.

Exciting news to kick off the month courtesy of Bloody-Disgusting.com! The new Freddy Krueger, Jackie Earle Haley recently confirmed that he has signed a three picture deal with Platinum Dunes to bring us at least two more Nightmare on Elm Street films in addition to the one being released in April 2010. While the new film, which is still shooting, is a "reboot", it is clear that the two new films will bring new stories into the fold.

Here is a pretty important interview that I missed, Robert Englund, talking about the Elm Street remake and the man who took his place, Jackie Earle Haley.

Kristen Parker is one of the last surviving children of the parents who killed Freddy Krueger. After being admitted into the psychiatric facility of Westin Hills, she meets Nancy Thompson, herself a survivor. Together, along with the rest of the "Dream Warriors", they face Krueger together using Kristen's ability to bring them together in the same dream.

Retroslashers recently interviewed Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash artist Jason Craig (Read interview here), and today he sent them two exclusive pictures from the new comic. The first issue of the Wildstorm mini-series is on sale now, and issue two is due on shelves July 22.

Bloody-Disgusting.com has learned while visiting the set of the Elm Street remake, that Rooney Mara (Nancy) signed on for two sequels.

"While on set we had the chance to talk with the lovely Rooney Mara who revealed exclusively to B-D that she is in fact signed on for TWO movies as your new Nancy Thompson. Obviously, how well the first film performs dictates whether or a not a sequel will be developed, but assuming this is as sucessful as Platinum Dunes' Friday the 13th, I think it's safe to say we'll be seeing Rooney vs Freddy Krueger round 2."

Today I updated the Casting page with three new additions to the cast of A Nightmare on Elm Street 2010 (plus all the "uncredited" extras listed on IMDB.com).

Page updated with: Charles E Tiedje as Officer Delaney
Lia D. Mortensen as unknown
Anna Hagopian as Jesse's Mother
