Interview with Jackie Earle Haley (A Nightmare on Elm Street)

If you're going to take over the role of one of the most iconic characters in horror film history, you’d better be prepared for grueling makeup sessions, a sharp glove, and lots and lots of blood!

Tribute's Bonnie Laufer sits down EXCLUSIVELY with Oscar nominee Jackie Earle Haley, who takes over the role of Freddy Krueger—made famous in the '80s by Robert Englund—in the re-imagining of A Nightmare on Elm Street.

Haley tells Tribute he knew he had big claws to fill but was confident he could bring his own spin to the character. Were there any "sharp" mishaps? You'll just have to watch to find out!
