OlderLindsay Lohan Not Joining ‘A Nightmare On Elm Street’
Lindsay Lohan has been cast as the lead female role in the remake of A Nightmare On Elm Street, the film’s producer Andrew Form confirms exclusively to JustJared.com.
“We were lucky to receive a call from Jason Weinberg, Lindsay’s manager,” Andrew tells JustJared.com. “He called us to tell us that Lindsay was very interested in the film and wanted to be a part of it. We called Jason back after Wesley Strick finished the script and asked if Lindsay wanted to look at the first draft. She looked it over and loved it. She thought this was the perfect vehicle for her.”
Andrew and Bradley Fuller, who produced the remakes of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Friday the 13th, will be with producing the Nightmare remake. Also on board is Michael Bay, who directed both Transformers films.
“Michael, Bradley and I couldn’t imagine having a better actress for the part and without an audition we cast her,” Andrew adds.
It was announced yesterday that famed music video director Samuel Bayer will be directing the horror flick.
Tidbits: One Tree Hill’s Sophia Bush auditioned for the role, as well as Danielle Panabaker, who stars in Friday the 13th…in theaters today, Friday the 13th!
UPDATE 1: Laaaaaaame! Someone apparently punk’d me and is trying to ruin my reputation. Rude. This business is shady! Yes, Lindsay’s rep has confirmed she will not be starring in A Nightmare on Elm Street. Deepest apologies. Lesson learned. But if this role is up for grabs, they should cast Lindsay!
UPDATE 2: That was helpful. I just got off the phone with the real Andrew Form! A casting director has not been hired yet for this project but I will now be kept in the loop when real casting news hits. Thank you for making this happen, Mister Impersonator!

why do we need another NOES? Hollywood sure is getting lazy
fingers crossed it does good for her
another razzie for lindsay ?
she’s going to ruin this movie
I think they forgot one important thing…Lindsay cannot act.
Been waiting for this movie for a long time….now I’m a lil concerned with LL on board. Please don’t ruin this LL :)
WOW SHE LOOKS AMAZING IN THAT HAT
Remakes are NEVER any good but at least maybe this will prompt Lilo to get eating some cheeseburgers!!
Finally Lindsay found a movie that fits on her.
That tidbit about Sophia auditioning for this movie is a HUGE lie. I know that for a fact……people need to get there information straight.
Any ways, lets see how the remake turns out………..
I HATE LINDSEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE’S ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE HOLLYWOOD POP TARTS WHO IS A HUGE TRAINWRECK. THIS MOVIE IS GONNA TO BE AWEFULLLLL.
You guys are idiots. Lindsay is a good actress, you can’t deny that but knowing alll the stupid **** that she does people see past her acting & see that yeah, she’s a trainwreckkk but don’t say she can’t act. I love her and I only focus on her acting, I don’t care if she’s coked up or whatever. She is a talented actress. I love Nightmare on Elm Street. I used to watch alll of the movies. I hope Lindsay puts her alll in this film.
best idea ever, hopefully she can prove herself… and if its a hit which it most likely will be she can lose the “Box office poison” stigma. yay!
Ewwwww. Not interested in the movie at all.
shut the **** up you ******** and get a life
lindsay i wish you the best ,hope the movie is good
The tidbit about Sophia Bush is WRONG!!!
She didnt audition
YEAH LINDSAY, CAN’T WAIT!
if its true that sophia auditioned for this role then they don’t know what they are missing.
sophia is an amazing actress..and lindsay is…not. -.-
Awesome. I didn’t want to see this movie but now I cant’ wait.
LOL “She looked it over and loved it. She thought this was the perfect vehicle for her.” i bet she loved it and thought is was the “perfect vehicle for her” it is the ONLY “vehicle” that has been offered to her… ahahah! what a friggin joke. Now i cant go see the movie! damn it! :|
Hate Lindsey Lohan………why the hellllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll did they pick her of all people??? I used to love her in The Parent Trap but she pulled so much sh*t after that, I’ve lost all respect for her. She’ just like the other Hollywood bimbos.
This is great news. Lindsay is PERFECT.
Uggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Lindsey Hohan, WTF?? This movie will definitely suck ass.
I’m glad Sophia isnot going to be in this movie, this movie looks like it’s going to suck! Lindsay is a good actress, but she fucked up her career and most people don’t want to see a movie with her in it.
The millennium sure has alot of remakes. I just don’t see the need to remake a classic like the original. If people think it’s dated then buy it on HD. The film is great in HD.
