Jason Vs. Tommy Jarvis? Sure, Maybe, Probably not.. Anyways, in a recent interview Corey Feldman aka Tommy Jarvis (The First Act) talked a little about his plan return as Tommy Jarvis in 'Friday the 13th Part XIII: Jason Vs. Jarvis in 3D'..
"The idea is something we have been brewing for a few years. Its something I thought up, maybe, ten years ago. Then the fans came to me. They said, "Hey, we want to do this, what do you think?" I said, "I think it's a great idea." They said, "We saw your interview where you were talking about it, and now we want to really get it going." So, we took it to the studio. Now we are in the political arms of the studio. We will see what happens. It is something where I have been talking to the original writer, Barney Cohen, about it. He wrote the original Friday The 13th: The Final Chapter script. And we have talked to the original producers of that script, and the original director. It has gone through the pipeline. We will see where it lies."
But wait doesn't Platinum Dunes still own the rights to the franchise? A couple of years back the studio was set make a sequel, which would have Jason killing teens in a snow storm.. But the studio abandoned that idea.. It appears as of right now Platinum Dunes no longer have the rights to the franchies, but Warner Bros may still have right to the series.. Confused yet?
Anyways...
Feldman explains: "Its not, no. That is part of the problem. No one really knows where the franchise lives. That's a whole separate investigative story for you. Who does owns the Friday The 13th rights anymore? No one really knows. I think it is with Warner Bros. I think Platinum Dunes dropped the title. I don't think they had any more interest in it. But don't quote me on that. I am not the end all, be all when it comes to the Friday The 13th franchise. Or Michael Bay. Or any of that. I don't want to be put on record saying the wrong thing, or making up rumors, or whatever. There are lots of things. The last thing I want to do is make a statement as the end all, be all official last word on anything."
