'A Nightmare on Elm Street' 2 Confirmed; Bayer Not Back to Direct
We reported months ago that Jackie Early Haley and a few other 'ANOES' cast members were signed on for three films completing a new Nightmare trilogy. So this isn't brand spankin news but news none-the-less. Today we hear that a sequel will indeed happen but director Samuel Bayer has no interest in directing it...
Follow up:
SlashFilm had a chance to catch up with Bayer for a little one on one.
"I really hope the film does well. I will not be involved in a sequel…I don’t want to have my next movie be a horror movie. I’m already looking at stuff and I think I’m probably going to do a– it might be an action movie, or there’s a comic book they want to make into a film I’m very attracted to. But I think I’m going to move on and let someone else handle the next one, and it’ll be great."
There you have it. A sequel (probably a threequel) will take place but without Bayer behind the camera lens. To read the entire interview please click here.

Brandon Reuth was signed to a multiple picture deal as Superman, but he'll never be the man again. And now WB has waited 4 years to basically reboot the franchise again.
I hope they go sequel quick , but your headline is a tad deceitful.
for old and new Freddy fans alike.
A good friend of mine saw an early
screening. Without spoiling anything
the new film will be more serious in
tone, Freddy is one mean,evil, pissed
dude, Jackie Earl Haley does a great
job as Freddy, the plot has quite a
few twists that may or may not surprise
everyone. To sum it up the new film
is both scary and disturbing. This
Freddy is no comedian, he is a killer.
Dont watch it alone, and uh let us all
remember whatever we do, dont fall
asleep. April 30th. Freddy Awaits...
