Robert Englund, FREDDY KRUEGER. The success behind a mask     

Robert Englund has undoubtedly starred in one of the most famous characters in the history 

of modern cinema; "Freddy Krueger".

Before "A Nightmare on Elm Street", Robert Englund co-starred in one of the best series in the 

history of TV called; "V" (invasion).

In addition to being an icon in commercial horror films, he has more than a hundred appearances 

in TV series and films.

His great success that brings him closer to the category of myth in the cinema, came with the 

character Freddy Krueger in "A Nightmare on Elm Street". As always says Englund; "I am totally 

grateful for the luck of being able to star in the character of Freddy Krueger".

Englund was briefly considered for the part of Han Solo in the 1977 film Star Wars.



He also participated in some chapter of the mythical Knight Driver series.

The film character, the actor, his enormous sympathy out of the scene ... I think first is his talent 

and his person.
