A brand new re-imagining / reboot / remake of the most famous boogey man of them all. Freddy is back with a new actor behind the burnt face and he is again sneaking into the dreams of teens making them do methamphetamine (speed for those not aware ) , caffeine , and have sex to stay up and not fall asleep. For if they do Freddy always finds a creative way to kill them. I must admit like the Star Trek reboot I have this apprehension on seeing another actor other then Robert Englund portraying the Wes Craven pshycotic serial killer with that twisted sense of humor. He kind of owned that role for all those years. But that was then and this is now. The new version looks very much like the first version from the trailer . This time Jackie Earle Haley will take over the role of Freddy and Rooney Mara will play the role of Nancy Thompson. The movie will be written by Eric Heisserer and Wesley Strick, directed by Samuel Bayer, and produced by Michael Bay, Andrew Form, and Brad Fuller. And will be released on April 30th 2010.
