Fresh from the “never say never” file comes the following news:
Have you heard? Robert Englund has polished up the razor glove and dusted off the fedora and will once again be taking a turn as the iconic sleep stalker Freddy Krueger for a guest star spot on ABC’s sitcom The Goldbergs.
Not a fan of the sitcom – not even sure I have ever seen a single episode but apparently – it’s somewhat popular and they have a habit of featuring 80’s era content. From the network – here’s their explanation of how Freddy winds up playing a part:
“the episode fittingly titled “Nightmare on Elk Avenue” centers on the fears of the show’s teenage protagonist, Adam, after seeing A Nightmare on Elm Street when it premiered way back in 1984. Enter Englund, who will reprise his iconic role for what he calls “a spooky valentine to the fans.”
