Freddy's backstory has been re-iterated many, many times. A prequel is pointless. What else can they show/reveal? Freddy actually raping kids? I'll pass, thanks.
Englund is 59, so he won't make a convincing late-20/early-30-ish man.
Also, you take the Nightmares out of a Nightmare On Elm Street movie, is like taking the sex out of porn.
When is the last time there was an actual solo Nightmare? 1991, with Freddy's Dead. Not a quality entry, but still. 15 years is way too damn long for such a great character. WCNN doesn't count, because it's an imposter and the real world.
The Freddy's Nightmares pilot was semi-told through the eyes of Freddy. His perception, as contradicting to the films as it was.
It was also terrible, and I don't recommend ever looking for it, but that's niether here nor there.
