Here’s Robert Englund’s pitch for a new Nightmare on Elm Street film – just don’t expect him to be back as Freddy (via toofab)

Saying the first remake was"rushed," Englund throws a few ideas out there and says he's"encouraged" about Nightmare on Elm Street's future.

The 2003 showdown between the two horror icons marked Englund's last official film appearance of Freddy, though he did step back into the red and green sweater for a 2018 episode of "The Goldbergs." In-between those two projects, Platinum Dunes -- who made the reboots of "Texas Chain Saw Massacre" and "Friday the 13th" -- attempted to reboot "NOES" with Jackie Earle Haley rocking Freddy's glove.

Well, I think they're so part of the culture now that they've been diluted a little bit. And also, I think that remakes were rushed. I know the remake on "A Nightmare on Elm Street" was was premature. We should have done another "Freddy vs. Jason" film and then waited, they should have waited for five or 10 years. And I think it's the same thing with Child's Play ...

But because our society now is more damaged because of the opioid crisis, because of incredible diverse, because of the openness now with gender and sexuality, those kids now have to be different than the kids from the original "Nightmare" and someone has to write a different batch of kids and Freddy needs to be a different kind of evil. His evil needs to be, he needs to toy with what they like in the culture.

TooFab: Now that the Craven estate does have the rights back. Has anyone actually talked to you about anything?
