Robert Englund Rules Out Playing Freddy Krueger Again
A Nightmare on Elm Street's Robert Englund has put on his Freddy Krueger claws for the last time
A post shared by Bloody Disgusting (@bdisgusting)
"I would love to be invited if they reboot Part 3, Dream Warriors, which I think is the most popular film of the franchise," said Englund. "It would be fun to play one of the doctors. The great Priscilla Pointer, Amy Irving's mother, was in that film. Maybe I could play her part as a male doctor that’s very cynical. A cameo wink to the audience that I don't buy that there's this dream demon that everybody’s having the same dream about. It's in the tradition of remakes, especially with horror, to give an actor that's been in the original a little cameo, so I think that would be fun."
The one possibility that Englund left open for coming back to the role was if Freddy returns in an animated format. But for now, there are no reboots or cartoons on the horizon for this franchise. For now, fans will just have to be satisfied by the new restoration of A Nightmare on Elm Street, which is now out on digital. The physical 4K Ultra HD release will follow on October 15.
