Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes and New Line have already hired a director for the reboot of "Nightmare on Elm Street," bringing on Samuel Bayer to direct the reimagining of the Wes Craven classic.

You know who Platinum Dunes is looking at for the role of Freddy Krueger?

According to my guys...

JACKIE EARLE HALEY

Haley is making quite a name for himself recently playing (or possibly playing) iconicly creepy characters. In March he can be seen as the complex but very disturbed vigilante "Rorschach" in the film adaptation of Alan Moore's "Watchmen".

(psst...read the novel first, then let me know if you think a film version is even POSSIBLE)
