However Before disturbed, the series Peacock and A24 Crystal lake now moves in full speed –Linda Cardellini will star As Jason Voorhees’ as murderous mom, Pamela voorhees—Friday the 13th Fans still long to see Jason return to the big screen. The rights to the franchise have been in legal interference for years, with Sean S. Cunningham, who directed and produced the original 1980, Recently speculating that new Friday the 13th A movie is still a distant notion.
That’s still apparently true, but the first big announcement of the “Jason Universe“(Except for its existence, which was revealed in May 2024) actually revives our favorite hockey mask killer. Just not in the way fans may hope.
When it was announced, it was clear that the “Jason Universe” – created by Horror, Inc., “the original owners of the Friday the 13th Film franchise ” – intends to embrace” a wide range of entertainment platforms, games, immersive experiences, goods, and more “, with” movies “especially absent from that list. So maybe we will like that we get a movie: Sweet revenge“Short -shaped vignette” directed by Mike P. Nelson (the 2021 Wrong turn Rebootthe next Silent night, deadly night Reboot).
Sweet revenge It is favorite as “the central part of the franchise’s bold 45th anniversary”, according to a press release. It went into production this month, and fans will be able to watch it eventually on the YouTube channel of Jason Universe as well as … “A dedicated micros hosted by an angry Austria Hard Cider”, which is “patronizing the vignette linked to greater collaboration with the Jason’s Jason’s universe of Horror Inc.”, which will continue to roll for fans later. ”
Nelson is a solid choice to deal with a new entry into the Friday the 13th series; with Wrong turnHe proved more than able to breathe a new life in a long -standing horror franchise. We just don’t love the business look, especially when it is packed with quotes like this:
“Angry Austria fans love Bold, an unexpected distraction – especially terror – so this partnership only made sense,” said Matt Kunington, senior director of marketing at angry Austria. “It is a perfect way to celebrate 45 years of iconic franchise while creating new experiences for our drinkers in space they are already passionate about. We cannot expect to continue to live the partnership this year.”
We get it – someone has to put the dollars to finance Sweet revengeAnd at least it is a company that is professional to love horror and its fans. But it still feels a little awkward, right? We’ll wait to see Sweet revenge Before we have drown ourselves in Crystal Lake, but you have to imagine some level of product location will be part of this.
