IF I SO WASENT OVERWEIGHT! HAHAHAHA

KANE HODDDER

I'd like to see someone new in the role

MICHAEL BAILEY SMITH.

Kane Hodder isn't thin and cut

I agree with nickmeece about michael baily smith.

Actually Jason had a pretty average body build in 2-6. He was never huge until Hodder which wasn't until 7. So let's not pass judgment until someone is cast and we not only see pictures of him in costume, but video of him moving. THEN we can pass judgment :P

Tyler Mane?

Steviris. You must be a Halloween fanboy. Fuck off and die, luckily your boy Zombie isn't here to taint another franchise. Anyways If I had to pick out of all the actors whose played Jason, I'd go with Ted White followed by Hodder. I don't care what people say about him.

They couldn't get Tyler Mane because he thinks fridays suck.

Goose101 by the way if you are trying to diss the halloween franchise then you better stop watching horror films and go watch Mother goose. Halloween franchise is far better than Friday. First 2 friday films were good but after that they were nothing but Repetitive. Well Freddy vs Jason was a exeption.

KANE FUCKEN HODDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brad Renfro

Brad Renfro? Um, he's dead,so he definately couldn't play the part. I agree with Michael Bailey Smith.

no to kane hodder. he was a decent jason, but come on, almost any person able to do stunts can be jason for the most part. he's not freddy before i get flamed, i said "almost" and "for the most part"

The Halloween remake was better than the Texas Chainsaw remake. There I said it. I'm afraid of what this guy'll do to this one.

this is why i love living in austin!!!!!first WWE returns here and now they're gonna film the friday the 13th remake here!!!!!!its prolly gonna be filmed near lake travis(which isnt far from my house)

Sometimes, I read B-D comments sections just to remind me that we aren't so far removed from the lower animals. Goose101, you win today's de-evolution prize for raving, kneejerk fanboy pants wetting with your completely irrational reaction to a two word post by someone you don't even know. First, you assume that Steviris is completely serious when he suggests Tyler Mane, and from there make the leap that the guy must be a "Halloween fanboy" - as though everyone who fits that label is automatically a fan of Rob Zombie's film, and as though Mane would not be able to ever play any other psychopath since he played Michael Myers once. Then you actually tell the guy to "fuck off and die." A perfectly rational and well-adjusted piece of advice to give another human being because he has a different opinion about a horror movie, eh? Why not wish him testicular cancer and then threaten to rape his grandmother in the rest home while you're at it? If you're going to be a sociopath, don't be such a pussy about it. Tell him how you really feel! Of course, you do recover somewhat after that, proving how much you yourself are not a fanboy by suggesting the bold casting possibility of...(Wait for it!)... Kane Hodder! But before considering ol' "Token Jason", you offer, Platinum Dunes should hit up Ted White - a guy who must be in his sixties by now and hasn't played Jason since 1984. That would certainly jibe with the casting notice's call for a late 20s, early 30s stuntman, wouldn't you say? But you aren't concerned with that. I mean, if you're willing to ignore the fact that White was uncomfortable playing Jason in the first place and asked for his name to be removed from the credits of THE FINAL CHAPTER, why bother worrying about whether he's too old for the part, right? Look, I realize your dad probably wants his laptop back for a big World of Warcraft Guild Meeting or to download some barnyard porn, but could you at least try to put a little thought into your responses before you smear the keyboard with Doritos nacho cheese dust? Maybe make some suggestions that actually make even the tiniest bit of sense, or try to show just a hint of civility and not act like a drooling lunatic toward other human beings? It's a lot to ask, I know, but I think you can do it if you try.

They are describing how Richard Brooker looked as Jason in Part III. They should just get it right and have him be Jason again. He is the perfect size to be Jason and he did a great job in part III, especially with the chase scenes in the final scenes of the film.

Kane Hodder

oh yesssssssssssssss!

Who cares about the whole "sad eyes" casting call...I didn't exactly see that in the final product of Freddy vs Jason...did anybody else? I thought the Jason in that film was perfect.

Tyler Mane would actually make a great Jason. The main reason I didn't love Zombie's Halloween was because Meyers was way too much like Jason. Face it, this guy is one big, angry motherfucker. Meyers was never that big or obvious.

i would like to see a very new jason actor. someone could love the role in the future.

Exactly, Ultrazilla2000! Sometimes folks get hung up on the most ridiculous things, like a throway phrase in a casting call that only prospective actors were ever really meant to see. I also agree with you, theGuardian86, that Mane would be good as Jason. Again, only the fanboys would pay much attention to the fact that it was the same guy who played Michael Myers in Zombie's HALLOWEEN or Sabretooth in X-MEN. All of the other stuntmen who've played Jason have also shown up in other films playing other characters, but (with the exception of Hodder) few audience members have ever even noticed or been distracted by that fact.
