Freddy Asks Scream Queen Jamie To Consider One More "Halloween"


Jamie Lee Curtis
HOLLYWOOD - A Nightmare on Elm Street star Robert Englund is trying to persuade veteran

scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis to reprise her role as Laurie Strode for one more

Halloween movie.

Englund, who is famous for playing razor-fingered Freddy Krueger, wants to

team up with Halloween hellraiser Michael Myers for what he hopes will be

another box office hit.

But Englund will only take on the project if semi-retired Curtis returns to

the big screen.

He says, "The way it's conceived it would be a hell of an acting chore for

her (Curtis), because she would get to do sort of a rehab/recovery performance,

and it would be really fun.

"You could imagine, just see that whole arc of the character, from being

damaged and addled and weak, then getting your strength back. It's that great

old thing, the gunfighter who loses their courage.

"My idea is to couple her with a strong stepdaughter or daughter, so you have

female heroines, which is that great Nightmare on Elm Street thing, except this

time you have double the fun."

Englund reprised his Freddy Krueger character for surprise 2003 horror hit

Freddy vs. Jason, in which he came face to face with another scary movie icon,

Friday the 13th's Jason Vorhees.
