New Line didn't forget about Freddie
After the negative reviews that the "Nightmare on Elm Street" remake received, rumors circulated that New Line Cinema would restart the franchise again. In 2015, David Leslie Johnson took over the script for the reboot, whose track record is "The Conjuring 2", but over the past three years, there has been no progress in the project. However, recently the screenwriter finally shed light on the fate of the film, confirming that he is still involved in the production of the tape, as reported by MovieWeb. However, it looks like the reboot won't hit the big screens anytime soon.Johnson commented, “The project is still in progress, but no news has been heard. The Conjuring Franchise Is the most important for New Line at the moment. I think everyone wants to see Freddie again, so his return is to some extent inevitable. ” The Conjuring and its subsequent sequels and spin-offs have proven to be very profitable for the studio as they brought in more money than Elm Street. Johnson is currently working on the third part of the franchise, which is set to premiere in 2020, and recently completed the script for the spin-off about Annabelle. Therefore, due to the expansion of the "Conjuring" universe, Freddie remains in the plans of the film company.  However, the producers of New Line have definitely noticed the incredible success of the sequel to "Halloween", which became the most profitable in the entire franchise. And while the sequel to Friday the 13th is still in question due to license issues, it seems like the time has come for a new Nightmare on Elm Street. In addition, the star of the original film, Heather Langenkamp, said she would like to reprise her role. Robert Englund formally said goodbye to Kruger after Freddy vs. Jason, but has since hinted that he still has the strength for yet another picture of the Springwood Ripper.
