Amanda Righetti (super hot picture inside) is in final negotiations to play the female lead in the Michael Bay-produced remake of Friday the 13th, directed by Marcus Nispel (Texas Chainsaw Massacre). Lensing will begin April 21 in Austin, Texas. Righetti also recently joined the cast of CBS pilot “The Mentalist” and her credits include “Return to House on Haunted Hill” and a recurring guest role on “K-Ville.” She joins Jared Padalecki and the new Jason, which will be played by Derek Mears (story here). The remake will focus on Jason Voorhees -- who will wear the mask and kill -- and keep the famous setting of Crystal Lake.

I hope jason kills everybody in this movie no survivors.

Something about the actors in the film being somewhat known people kind of takes the fun out of the F13 films (just somewhat, not fully). I enjoy the old ones, in which you have never heard of the actors. Now it's the hip thing in Hollywood to do.

Are you kidding me? This chick is a D-Lister at best. The guy playing Jason isn't very recognizable either. These guys having some sort of experience doesnt take anything away, it's the movie in general we have to worry about.

I fucked her.... I hope jason fuck's her and then takes her and smashes her against a tree. Like jason x I couldn't stop laughing....

she doesnt look like a teen so i hope to god there not gonna try and make us believe these mid 20 year olds are playing teens. not that it matters, as long as the script respects the old series, doesnt try and make sense of things with too much cornyness, plays homage to the old series and jason does what he does best this should be fun. as long as some of these people arent annoying. this needs to be a dawn of the dead type remake and not a halloween one, dotd is how you do it right.

I love no names in horror too. But you have to expect "names" in remakes since they're trying to take a series that burned out and reinvent it. Not saying this chick is a name, but you get the point.

She's hot, and stunnining to look at. Now go ask yourself???? WHAT DO YOU WANT"!!!! MY opinion, Lots of momma, and build the story about Jason. Let's be real about the story?( Jason) was a hell of a lot scarier when he jumped his ass out of the lake an grabbed the girl and in the process.......made a milliion kids jump the fuck out of your seats!!! I loved horror, but that cemented it.Sorry, but Momma was way scarier than the Hockey mask. So Fuck your Kane Hodder!!! Bring back BETSEY PALMER!!!!! butthatcemented

i get so tired of the Kane bashers. He is a very nice guy, and i think that he should at least be given a part in this new movie. -heather

If she had green hair, she'd be one hot oompa loompa.

jasonlives1986, Google her or check out her pics on IMDB. She could definitely play 17-19, and she is much hotter than this pic lets on. I'm on board with this choice.

never heard of her either......agree with zombie. i hope that they do keep the homage of f13th and it isnt stupid...wonder if they will still keep the chchchch hahaha.....i HOPE that this is going to be good and lives up to the other 11 friday the thirtheenths (im including the freddy vs jason).

I like her but I hope she isn't playing a teenager because I sure as hell won't belive that kind of bullshit. She was one of the stars of The OC and even in that show she didn't play a teen. Anyways, I liker her but her big masculine shoulders bothers me hahahaha.

More eye candy? Are modern horror fans really that shallow? Again, horror nowadays has missed it's mark. It used to be about normal people finding themselves in horrorific situations. Now it's about hot people finding themselves in horrific situations. That's not scary at the least. But, that being said, I DO hope they opt to make her DOWN. Looking at her pics at IMDB, she CAN pull off a "normal looking young woman" if they don't glam her up to look like someone form Laguna Beach or The Hills. Though, I don't recall Friday being exclusively for teen victims. If I recall right, most of the victims in the original were camp counselors. Weren't they suposed to be "college age", at the least? If she's a camp counselor, she's probably of the right age. But that's the difference. For instance, in the NOES movies, those ARE suposed to be teens. In the first Final Destination movie, those are suposed to be teens too(thought they look freakin OLD). But for Friday series, a lot of them are basically late teens through their twenties. So that fits.

To be honest, she was pretty dull in 'Return to House on Haunted Hill' as the lead girl. I hope she's better in this remake flick!
