Pamela Voorhees Has Been Cast!
Monday, April 21, 2008

Nana Visitor (Babysitter Wanted) has been cast as the legendary Pamela Voorhees in Platinum Dunes' Friday the 13, which is currently lensing in Austin, Texas for release on Friday, February 13, 2009, according to Screen Geeks. She apparently won’t be in the film for long, but she has had a mold made of her head, the website reports. She joins Jared Padalecki, Derek Mears, Amanda Righetti, Danielle Panabaker, Aaron Yoo, Travis Van Winkle, Willa Ford, Nick Mennell and Jonathan Sadowski. The remake will focus on Jason Voorhees -- who will wear the mask and kill -- and keep the famous setting of Crystal Lake.

Not too bad. She's 51, so certainly old enough to be mother to a 20/30something murderer. :) I hope they make her look nice and matronly, that's what made Betsy's Mrs. Voorhees scary when she went mad.

Any Star Trek geeks will know her as the awesome Major Kira from Deep Space Nine. Go Nana!

Yeah, because all the bitching changed so many other productions. I love the ego on the petty whiners, even moreso than the petty whining.

i like the fact we know there's been a cast made of her head! so maybe we'll have a F13-part 2 (head in fridge) moment!

This doesn't even sound like a remake to me. Why can't they just add a number to the title or call FRIDAY THE 13TH: Jason blah blah!!!?

"she has a mold made of her head" clue right there, mrs. voorhees will be decapitated in the remake one thing though, how are they going to fit all that in this movie with jason as a kid, to the first one w/ mrs. voorhees getting killed, and then jason getting the mask and killing people. will jason still have the potato sack that he had in part 2?

so Jason's going to be hot then? really i think Kathleen Turner or Glenn Close would have been a better choices.i'm sorry but this woman doesn't look like any body's mother. especially a ten foot tall retarded mountain man with a serious overbite and a hockey fetish.

She's a MILF. I'm not bitchin, but I would prefer momma Vorhees as the killer like THE ORIGINAL, as opposed to Jason. The story was more interesting. But who knows, this has potential to being a good,scary horror flick if done right. I'll definately see it regardless.

She's awesome for this role. As a product of 80s TV, she often played the good looking nutbar. Now she'll be playing a MILF nutbar. Ahhh typecasting. No matter what the decade, it never truly goes away.

There isnt any big shoes to fill. --------------------------Heres the deal for all you guys out there with very thick heads. 10 minutes into the beginning the Paper Thin Kill'Off's sit around a campfire. One of them tells the tale about the Voorhees Legend. We dissolve into a myriad of scenes. Including the story of Pamela Voorhees. That's why this chick isn't in the film long. I feel bad for you delusional fan's. The entire film plot is already online in a summary over at Chud. Teens go to the abandoned camp to find weed planted in the woods around there. They are killed off. Whitney the only girl with these pot desperate dumb asses is kidnapped by Jason. He doesn't kill her because She looks like his mother, but that plot point surprise isn't revealed until sometime near the films climax. A short time after the film opening shocker.. Clay- Whitney's brother takes a trip out to the camp looking for her with his girlfriend. Since she's all kidnapped and no ones heard from her in a while. Tunnels and all sorts of Nancy Drew/Hardy Boy stuff. Jason shows up. Bla Bla Bla

I know I'm not going to get my way, but this would be a hell of alot more interesting with Mrs.Voorhees as the killer in the first installment. Introduce Jason in the latter part of the movie which of course would open the doors for the many sequels to follow. By the way, Jason does not need to Go to Hell or to New York City...PLEASE!!!!

I wouldn't be to worried if Mrs. Voorhees is in the film for long, she'll probably be used for a flashback scene only, and u see her snexy mug sliced off

sounds more like a friday the 13th part 2 remake to me and a dissapointing one at that. shes no betsy palmer and as a lifelong Friday the 13th fan I'd be dissappointed with any other Jason but Kane Hodder. This should only be done with Rob Zombie's direction.
