There has been a lot of speculation about the upcoming Friday the 13th movie, but nothing apart from the release date has been officially announced. Rumours have included a found footage take on the franchise, a 3D version and even the idea of a movie without Jason Voorhees.
In a recent interview with Bloody Disgusting, Platinum Dunes producer Brad Fuller said of the new Friday the 13th, “I can’t make any determination about found footage or 3D until we have a story that we all agree on and that we all like. The story is the most important thing, and the way you tell the story, to me, is secondary.”
He continues, “We have some writers writing, but, because we don’t have a script that everyone has signed off on, I can’t speak to how the story is meant to be told. All of those things have been considered, but no decisions have been made. We don’t know what story is being told.”
V/H/S director David Brucker is set to direct, but again nothing is confirmed.
Friday the 13th has already been pushed back from March to 13th November 2015.
