Pinocchio Unstrung with Robert Englund | Entertainment and Celebrity News

In a chilling new take on Pinocchio set in a sinister London prep school, Robert Englund delivers a haunting performance as Cricket, a manipulative force guiding Pinocchio’s violent quest to become real — one gruesome piece at a time. Englund reveals his inspiration for Cricket, blending devilish whispers with the gravelly cadence of Edward G. Robinson, while also championing humor as essential in dark films to prevent audience desensitization. He’s thrilled to collaborate with Richard Brake, who plays the twisted Geppetto, and even teases a potential animated Freddy Krueger role — all while hinting at a long-overdue reboot of Nightmare on Elm Street, starting with the beloved Dream Warriors.
