A Nightmare on Elm Street REBOOT - New Face Of Freddy!
It's been recently confirmed that A Nightmare on Elm Street is getting a reboot, who do you think should play the new Freddy Krueger? I'd cast Willem Dafoe, William Fichtner, Jared Leto or Jake Gyllenhaal.......... BUT... Here's the article:

I heard about this a while back. I thought Robert Englund was coming back though. The remake that came out a while back was horrible and I would only imagine having someone else playing Freddy wouldn't make it any better. If Englund plays Freddy I will check it out but otherwise, no thanks.

I was actually really happy with how Jackie Earl Hayley played Freddy. Its not his fault the writing was terrible. He had the right kind of presence, maybe needed to work on the voice a little more, but otherwise he did a great job.
Robert Englund will not play Freddy again. There isn't even a remote chance. But I will never snub a remake because it doesn't run the same people. Remakes are a good thing and a necessity to keep the originals alive. I will happily see this when it comes out.

You're surely entitled to your opinion, but I don't see how molesting a classic can keep the originals alive. (I'm speaking of remakes in general, not just the NOES series.)

Despite what we believe, movies have a shelf life if they are not watched, and in order to keep them being watched, newer, younger, and in some cases dumber audiences have to be pulled in and shown where to find them. We are not a huge army, we cannot show the world movies we grew up loving, but a remake can reintroduce a character to a new audience that might not have ever seen them before.

But there are channels and people dedicated to getting classics out there and opening the minds of people who will give something made with care a chance. If someone's too stupid to follow the story or appreciate the cinematography, then oh well they don't deserve it. You're weeding out bad fans then. And I think you underestimate our army my friend, I knew much of horror before watching it and getting involved with the fandom. A classic doesn't die out, remakes or not. Names like Freddy, Micheal, and Jason's are not so easily forgotten.

I will say in defense of the remake that Freddy's makeup did resemble that of a burn victim more than Englund's makeup and he did have a darker side rather than a comedian with witty catch phrases. It would have been better if it had Rooney Mara's boobies in it.
