A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET Remake Moves Closer And Closer...


Merrick here...


It's been a little while since we've heard anything about Platinum Dunes' remake of A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. Shock 'Till You Drop has an update, with a few details from the project's producers.

"It's our next movie," confirmed Form, "hopefully shooting this spring."

...says producer Andrew Form in THIS ARTICLE at ShockTillYouDrop.

The article also indicates that Freddy will, indeed, be recast (this isn't surprising, although a few folks refuted this information shortly after the film's announcement). However, The Powers That Be hope to have "original" Freddy actor Robert Englund appear in the film in some capacity.
