Fuller: 'Freddy look not finished'

A Nightmare On Elm Street producer Brad Fuller has admitted that Freddy Krueger's final look is not yet finished.

Watchmen star Jackie Earle Haley will portray the dream killer in the remake of the 1984 Wes Craven horror film.

A new teaser trailer for the reboot was unveiled earlier this week, in which the character's make-up and voice are not entirely complete, according to Fuller's blog on studio Platinum Dunes' website.

He wrote: "We are continuing to refine Freddy's look. Many people commented about the CGI on his face - and I don't want to give everything away but I will say this - Freddy's face is 98% practical make-up.

"Moreover, as you now know we went hardcore on what a burn victim really looks like, and I can't imagine what the comments would have been if he didn't look like a real burn victim."

Fuller added: "Jackie spent so much time on the voice, researching what people who have their vocal cords burned sound like. He is still working on it and I suspect that we will be refining it, until the last moment."

Haley earlier said that his version of Freddy will differ from Robert Englund's.
