'Friday the 13th' Sequel a Possibility?

While there are plenty of haters here on Bloody-Disgusting, our stats show that the most anticipated movie of 2009 is New Line Cinema's Friday the 13th. While nothing is a guarantee, we're expecting that the Platinum Dunes produced remake will put Jason Voorhees back on the top of the box office. With that said, inside you can read about the possibilities of a sequel, assuming the film performs on February 13, 2009.

"No, we aren’t talking about the sequel until we see how the movie performs," Platinum Dunes producer Brad Fuller tells Bloody-Disgusting. "We would love to do a sequel and we hope we are in a position to do a sequel, but you never want to test the 'Movie Gods' and the movie going audience by preparing something, until you know what you have is successful." He continues, "With this one, we made a movie that we are all very proud of, it’s the most fun I have had on a movie. I really love it, I hope the audience responds, and we get an opportunity to make another one!"

If the horror fans show up on Friday, February 13th, Jason Voorhees' legacy just might continue on...

it's good these guys can lie to our faces, we know there is a sequel coming and we know it's already being worked on. christ do they think were peons who don't know whats up? it would be irresponsable for them not to have plans for a sequel underway. douche bags need to stop lying.

Of course this will perform. If a cheesy pile of shit like "Freddy Vs. Jason" could make over 90 million then I see no reason why this one shouldn't make bank.

We all know this movie is going to make alot of money at the movies. Don't worry about it, this is going to mega successful and the sequel will come out probably after they release the Nightmare on Elm st. remake. This Friday remake looks intense!!! Screw all the haters!

Duh..of course there will be a sequel. I'm betting there will be several, along with Michael and Freddy.

hope so. after the success of fvsj we didn't get any sequel. and will we get any sequel if the new f13 will make money at the box office? i want them...

ofcourse there will be a sequel. Probably a new franchise out of it. Look at how many halloween movies, saw movies, any other slasher film. If the money is there they don't care...

Maybe the sequel could be called 'The Final Friday, Scout's Honour' and then they can make a follow-up to that, too.

They just gave me a reason to NOT go see this one...as if I didn't have enough already. Folks, it's as simple as this, if you do not want to see this or any other horror remakes... STOP GOING TO SEE THEM!

idk would be cool. hope they do make a sequel but wish it would tie in jason nine and jason ten the events that happend between them. or what happened after jason and i forget his name landed/crashed on earth 2. or film it in the winter something different with snow. or idk did they ever explain jasons dad in the original jason??? if they did then i might have missed that.

You people need to get over yourselves. Will you really lose sleep if they make another one after this? If I could have a Friday the 13th movie in theatres every Halloween instead of fucking Saw, this world would be a better place.

I hope they make a dozen more. Fuck the haters Jason rules and I don't care if the next one is Jason vs Chucky I'll watch it :D

Is this article necessary? Friday the 13th movies have been released steadily over the last 28 years. Why would they stop now? Especially considering the next Friday is the most anticipated one in years.

I hope they make a lot more sequels. The remake will be badass.

Its a given this movie will make money and more than likely spawn a sequal.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but to just straight out BASH a film before it has even hit theaters is just insane. Wait until Feb to decide your opinion on the film, and if it deserves sequels.

There's already a Part 2... geez.

I'll most definately be there.

That sounds about right. And if it were up to me we would get a new installment every year. I guess we'll just see how this first one does. I know I'll be there for the midnight showing...

of course there's going to be a sequel.you gotta have a head full of shit if you think there won't be.(Texas Chainsaw Massacre:The Begining?)

So are they going to remake all 10 F13 movies and all 7 "Nightmare" movies before we get the "Freddy vs. Jason" remake?

"Screw all the haters" you say? I'm no hater, I'm just sick of lame duck attempts to get horror in the theater. Most of you (and that includes any of you geeking out over this) piss and moan about sequels and remakes, yet somehow F13 and NOES get a pass? How does that work exactly? TCM was mediocre at best. "The Beginning" prequel was weak. Doubt this will be any better. Oh well, I'm gonna see it for free anyway so I can care less. :)

They also need to get the balls and do a REAL sequel. Not some gay backstory or something like that. It can simply be "Friday the 13th: Part 2" and I'll be happy.

Make a prequel. Like Friday the 13th: Jason The Teenage Years. He wears the mask because he has really bad acne and he kills because everyone makes fun of him.

I am all for a sequel. There is something magical about the Crystal Lake locale and the Friday the 13th formula that keeps me coming back again and again. However, if they make a prequel and fairy Jason up with some pathetic backstory, I'm out for good. We have all the backstory we need in the original Ft13. Any more makes him too human and ruins what makes him so damned menacing.

Here in Aus, Platinum Dunes remakes have made approximtaley $3 million each, so hopefully this is no exception.

i'm already excited about the first FT13 but if there is a second one in the works then i am really happy
