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).
On June 24 Wildstorm is releasing Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash: The Nightmare Warriors -- a six issue comic book mini series. Below is the cover art, release dates and synopsis for the first four issues.
Kyle Gallner who plays "Quentin" in the 2010 A Nightmare on Elm Street remake talked to FEARnet about the film and Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger.
Ron Grady is the popular handsome jock who initially turns his hormonal ire towards Jesse Walsh. After a physical confrontation, the two become pseudo friends as Jesse begins his investigation into his new home on Elm Street. Grady haphazardly looks out for Jesse throughout the movie, and his mockery of him continues to the very end. Played by Robert Rusler.
I'm starting to get worried that 85% of the new Nightmare news is going to be focusing on Kellan Lutz because he is in the Twilight films. I will do my best to not turn this Blog into a Lutz Blog, but due to the lack of news today, here is a brief and uninteresting interview he did with MTV.com. I just like how he keeps avoiding calling the original Elm Street films "horror."
Director Wes Craven recently told IGN that he is less than thrilled over the Platinum Dunes' A Nightmare on Elm Street remake. Kind of strange for someone who has pretty much agreed to have every single one of his films remade at some point.
