There have been talks about a remake of Friday the13th for a while now around the internet and now we have some more blood to add to the warm body of Jason Voorhees. The kind folks over at fangoria.com gave us this tidbit from their conversation with producers of The Hitcher 
Brad Fuller and Andrew Form:
While attending a screening of that particular update, Fango spoke to Fuller, who’s gearing up for a busy year ahead with a number of projects. “We were actually just talking about FRIDAY THE 13th today,” he says. So the project isn’t adrift somewhere in Crystal Lake? Not according to the more vocal one of Dunes’ busy team. In fact, it sounds like the who-owns-what debate surrounding the next chapter is being smoothed out: “We’ll be doing it with Paramount and New Line.”
Well that is a bit of an interesting compromise if it’s true. And really it doesn’t seem so far fetched, studios can play nice together when they think that it will be worth it. What’s interesting to me is that they think this movie will be a success.
So far I haven’t been too excited about this remake. Now though I am getting curious as to why two big studios such as New Line and Paramount would bond together for this film. Makes me think they know something big that we don’t about Friday the 13th.
