But that's it, if that stuff is truly over, then maybe it's time to revisit that conversation."įeldman isn't the only Friday the 13th star interested in making another movie. Jason and we were pitching it to Paramount and New Line about 6-7 years ago, but it just never went forward because of all the tie-up and all the legal litigation stuff going on.

Me and the original writer of The Final Chapter, Barney Cohen, had gotten together and fleshed out a treatment for Tommy vs. That was an idea that I had been told a while back, which is okay.
FRIDAY THE 13TH FILM MOVIE
"There's been the idea that every survivor from every Jason movie should get together and have Tommy guide them through this one last adventure against Jason. Jason discussions should begin again if the legal battle is really over, as he's been told. Referring to the treatment written with Barney Cohen, Feldman concludes with a suggestion that the Tommy vs.
FRIDAY THE 13TH FILM SERIES
It's an interesting idea, though Feldman still feels that bringing back the whole gang would be a bit much, adding that Tommy Jarvis - who appeared as the protagonist in more movies than any other character in the series - would be enough for the potential sequel to work. The idea of a team up movie with Tommy Jarvis and the other survivors of the series had also been pitched to Feldman at one point. Well, all we're asking for is one, one Tommy vs. Now, of course they've taken that idea and redone that five different ways. "If they were doing things the right way and they were listening to what the fans really want, and they had their ear to the ground and the pulse of what's going on in pop culture society, what they should do is revamp the idea of bringing tommy back years later to go up against his nemesis the same way they did with Jamie Lee Curtis and the Halloween reboot. He then stresses how all he wants is "just one" sequel with an older Tommy Jarvis battling Jason Voorhees once again. Looking at Halloween, Corey Feldman points out how Jamie Lee Curtis has returned in many Halloween legacy sequels in varying timelines, some where she's dead and some where she isn't. Not to talk badly about Platinum Dunes, but I had met with them prior to making that movie and they had promised me that they were going to use me and bring Tommy Jarvis back in the version that they had originally planned to make, and then that all got scratched for that ridiculous whatever-it-was." They didn't go that route and they went and did this awful atrocity of a reboot instead and look what you got. Where they messed up is they had been meeting with me about doing Tommy vs. "Let's just hope they don't make it like they did the last one, because that was terrible. He says he even met with Platinum Dunes about making that movie before the studio passed in favor of the 2009 reboot, a decision Feldman says left him feeling "screwed." Jason with Feldman reprising the role of Tommy Jarvis. As Feldman tells us, he had previously collaborated with The Final Chapter screenwriter Barney Cohen to flesh out treatment for Tommy vs. He's a lawyer, and he has resolved the rights issues around Friday the 13th, and that things are working out, and now they'll be able to start making Friday the 13th movies again."įeldman says he can't say who it was that told him, but if the door is opening back up for Friday the 13th to continue, the actor will be ready for it. Interestingly enough, some guy came up to me at a party, this is true, two weeks ago, and said he has resolved the rights issues. "I think if we do any reboots, the reboot should be the Tommy vs. Feldman also adds that he was told by a lawyer that the rights issues have been worked out, suggesting that an agreement may have finally been reached.

When discussing potential legacy sequels to his past movies, the former child star said a new Friday the 13th sequel with Tommy's return is what he would be most interested in. In a new exclusive interview with Movieweb, Feldman addressed the state of the Friday the 13th franchise. The pandemic only further delayed a final ruling, and there's still no end in sight. Original Friday the 13th producer and director, Sean Cunningham, asserts that screenwriter, Victor Miller, is not entitled to any of the Friday the 13th profits, and though a judge ruled in Miller's favor in 2018, Cunningham's legal team appealed. The biggest roadblock standing in the way of that project is the seemingly never-ending legal battle over the franchise. For many years, Corey Feldman has wanted to reprise the role of Tommy Jarvis for a Friday the 13th legacy sequel.
