When it comes to the most legendary of scream queens in the horror genre, few are more iconic than Heather Langenkamp. To A Nightmare on Elm Street aficionados the world over, she’s best known as Nancy Thompson, having starred in three pictures making up the fan favorite saga.
If you’ve been keeping up with news pertaining to Langenkamp, then you probably heard about how she’d like to participate in another Freddy flick. But since that particular franchise is collecting dust at the moment, the possibility of that doesn’t seem too likely.
Believe it or not, there’s one highly lucrative series she’d like to join, citing The Conjuring while speaking with ComicBook.com:
“I think some of the New Line films that they’re putting out, like the Annabelle and all the universes from the Conjuring universes, I do really like a lot of those movies, and I think they all have some really great characters, and they use a lot of character actors from the genre. I think those movies are the ones that appeal to me most. I’m not really into slasher movies. I really don’t love watching the body count racking itself up. Of course, I mean, there’s a lot of great parts in all of those movies.”
Of course, Heather would prefer a sizable role, continuing with:
“I think I would just look for a really great part, one that the fans would watch it and go, ‘Oh, that’s different.’ Or, ‘That’s cool, that’s new.’ That had some meat to it that was an interesting role. And that’s my goal going forward is to find those roles out there and make my fans happy, because they’re like, ‘Where are you? Why aren’t you doing anything, Heather?’ I’m like, ‘I don’t know, I’m trying.'”
For those keeping track, The Conjuring 3 opens in theaters on September 11th, 2020. If there’s no room for Langenkamp, then maybe she could be included in a fourth installment – or one of many possible spinoffs.
