6.12 Paramount Pictures To Greenlight 'Friday The 13th' Sequel:



It appears Paramount Pictures is on the fast track to a new Friday The 13th sequel.. According to Bloody-Disgusting.com: Actor Derek Mears who played (Jason Voorhees) in the 2009 remake stated;

"I spoke to Brad Fuller and he said that the rights are, as everyone knows, over at Paramount and they’re pushing hard. They’re going we want [a new Friday The 13th movie] as fast as possible."

As most of you know, last week Jason Voorhees went home to Paramount, when Warner Bros. gave up their profit sharing rights to “Friday the 13th franchise
” for the next five years as part of a deal to co-produce a Christopher Nolan flick “Interstellar” with Paramount.. This pretty much guaranteed a new sequel.. 

When asked if he would return as "Jason" Derek Mears said: “I know they [Platinum Dunes] like me and they want me back. Look, even if I’m not a part of the series, as a fan I just want to see more.”
