Jackie Earle Haley...



Yes...the former whiz baseball kid from the Bad News Bears will be your new Freddie Krueger in the reboot of A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)...



He's actually a fantastic actor...he received an Oscar nomination for his role as a child molester in Little Children.

I love Robert Englund...but he's in his 60s now...so a younger...but still creepy-looking actor was needed...and Haley fits the Krueger role perfectly.

My only gripe though...is that Haley is a really small and slight person.

Thoughts?
