Exclusive: Fearless Director Ronny Yu
CS: Any chance you might direct a sequel to "Freddy vs. Jason" if New Line decides to do one?
Yu: Yeah, they've been talking about it, and they even talk about bringing Ash [from Sam Raimi's "Evil Dead" movies] into the equation, and I thought it's terrific. It's almost like an updated version of "The Good, The Bad and the Ugly." If they really want to do it and they want me to do it, I'd love to do it. It would be a lot of fun.

Jason is New Line now, he used to be Paramount which was one of the reasons it took so long for FVJ to come out.
I agree, if they want to throw someone else in the mix make it another horror icon. The only problem with Leather Face is he's mortal, so I don't know if he would last very long in a fight with Freddy and Jason. I think that Myers might make a little more sense but I guess they want to do that "Helloween" were Myers vs. Pinhead. But I can't think of a way that they could bring another horror icon or Ash into the mix without fucking-up the story or messing with continuity. I think FVJ was prefect in that respect of paying tribute to both series and not interfering with their continuity.

Well unforunantly Myers was destoried after #4 I think, there was so much coninuity problems with the rest of the Halloween sequals that was so bad.
But John Carpenter fells that he got his original vison out there with the first Halloween that he doesn't care about any other movies made b/c he gets $$$$$$$$ royalities. Hence the reason why he probably won't care about a Helloween or the Rob Zombie Halloween remake.
Kinda sad when you think about it b/c we are the die hard fans who love and respect this form of cinemia and this is how they repay us for buying a ticket, they throw dog shit at us half the time.

Wasn't "Jason Goes To Hell" put out by New Line?

Jason Goes to Hell and Jason X were New Line. But for some reason there was still a rights issue from what I understand and thats why it took so long for FVJ to come out. See Jason X was supposed to be FVJ but since it was a question as to when FVJ would come out they decided to make another Jason movie and set it a few years before the events of FVJ. By a few years I mean the openning scene when he;s been captured by the military before he's frozen.

I think that would make more sense, and maybe to more of a Jason storyline since the first one was more of a Freddy storyline.
And then maybe the ending could fill in the gap between FVJ and Jason X.

Don't worry, there won't be any ASH in any of the proposed monster crossover flicks.
Yes, they toyed with the idea briefly, but the internet/fanboy reaction was so strong that Raimi realized he could easily spin ASH and EVIL DEAD into another contemporary revival franchise. It's likely we'll see a sequal and/or contemporary remake in the near future.

I don't think however Ash will be in them, you should not only look at jason and freddy, but look at Sam Raimis perspective on that prospect.

Wasn't "Jason Goes To Hell" put out by New Line?
I don't think so, though can't be sure: I know that New Line are the owners of Freddy. (and now the owners of Jason)
I think at the time it was new line who wanted the Jason franchise but obviously couldn't at the time,hence the reason that Jason X came out, this was supposedly to fill in time while the negotiations took place, between the respective owners.
This is why Jason X does not fit into any particular time line with the other films.

its just....doesnt fit....plus hes mortal too
I've said this before...but I'll throw in again.
I personally think that despite Ash being a mere mortal, he'd be ok for a potential 3-way battle. Why? think about it a second...think of the peeps that have survived Freddy and/or Jason...usually mid to late teens, still half buzzin' and/or crazy with fear and frantic...yet due to luck or moments of resourcefullness these little teenys have managed to survive ok.
Now think about Ash...sure, in the first one, he freaks out a helluvalot, but by the end of the third film, hes either become pissed off or crazy enough to basically be a pretty bad motherfucker...He's resourceful, usually armed, got himself a demon headcount of, well, plenty...and a heluva mad-on for all things undead. He might not be all that much of a contender compared to freddy or Jason, but I think that all things considered, far lesser folk have come out unscathed.
AGES ago (god...years now), I wrote a lil' something about my ideas for this potential sequel, feel free to take a gander, I was cheebacheeba back in the day)

Jason Goes to Hell was the first Friday movie put out by New Line, if you recall Freddy's hand pops out of the ground and pulls Jason's mask down.
Jason X takes place after FVJ, the producers at the time wanted to make another Friday but they knew that FVJ was in the works so in order to not interfer with FVJ they set Jason X in the not so distant future and I'm not talking about after he's frozen, I'm talking about at the very beginning when he first gets captured to be studied.
Actually there was an idea floating around that there would a Friday movie that would fill in the time gap between FVJ and Jason X or there would be another Friday movie set on Earth 2. Another idea that the Fans have wanted for a long time is Jason in the snow at Crystal Lake.

[QUOTE Another idea that the Fans have wanted for a long time is Jason in the snow at Crystal Lake.[/QUOTE]
I thought about that one as well; although i thought about it after part 6; the campsite is either opened for the Christmas period or that the campsite is being re-done during the winter months and somehow Jason comes alive again.
If there was to be a Freddy Vs Jason 2, then maybe this could be the time it is set; Freddy would have fun as a Freddy (Nightmare) Santa, and I'm sure there would be plenty of tools for Jason to use - ice picks, skis etc.

Freddy vs Jason had a decent enough script. So if they think Freddy vs Jason 2 will do good, the script better be damn good. Else it might fall flat on its face, however dazzling the CGI be.

They could always do a Freddy vs Jason 2 and forget about Jason X.
I know loads of fans would be a bit disapointed but anyways.
They just carry on the stroyline of Freddy Vs Jason to Freddy vs Jason 2.
I think it would make much more sense.
as it means if they make a Freddy vs Jason 2 Jason wont be stopped as in Jason X he still lives till 2*** forgot the yr.
I want a sequal to Freddy Vs Jason. And i would like them to finish it in that one or finish it on a Freddy vs Jason 3 :D
People say they don't like it but there are many many fans that would like a sequal:p
Does New Line Cinema know that loads of fans would like a Freddy vs Jason sequal?
whats the problem?

What is the point of making a sequel to Freddy vs Jason? It was like a novelty film of having these 2 horror icons clash. Hard to believe that people actually want this spun off into its own franchise.

Umm, first off FVJ takes place between Jason goes to Hell and Jason X. Second off the next Friday movie coming out is a remake of the original Friday the 13th. Thirdly, as I've said numerous times, don't do another FVJ and give the fans what they really want which is a present day Jason movie at Crystal Lake in the snow, I all one has to do is read the Friday board and they'll see what I'm talking about. If someone wants to have a story that picks-up after Jason X then I suggest reading the crapy Jason X novel series that caem out a few years ago.
I don't really see the potenial for an FVJ 2, I mean the first one was good but it was digging at the bottom of the barrel I thought.

"...And Fox isn't the only studio with a hot date. New Line is hoping to release its 12th film in the "Friday the 13th" franchise on -- surprise -- Friday, Oct. 13. Studio has hired a writer to pen a another version of the Voorhees saga."

"New Line Cinema is moving forward with their FRIDAY THE 13TH remake (not a prequel or sequel, as reported elsewhere), with an eye to release their return to Camp Crystal Lake on Friday, October 13, 2006. Speaking exclusively to Fango, series creator and director of the original FRIDAY THE 13TH Sean S. Cunningham confirms, “New Line is aggressively pursuing a new film.” As for who is slated to take the directorial reins, Cunningham says, “I’m flattered that [New Line] is interested, but I’m not really involved, at least not at this point.”
...Of course, Jason only had a bit part in the 1980 FRIDAY, leaving the carnage up to dear old Mom (Betsy Palmer). The redux will substantially expand on his character and backstory."
Source: Your friendly, neighborhood webmaster (02/13/06):
A representative of SSC Films/Crystal Lake Entertainment clarified that the film is being developed in-house by New Line Cinema and not as an independently produced "negative pickup" (as Jason Goes to Hell and Jason X were). He reiterated, as Cunningham mentioned to Fangoria, that New Line is planning a remake.

"Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes shingle is coming aboard to produce the 11th outing in the sturdy "Friday the 13th" franchise for New Line.
Studio's hoping to fast-track the project -- centered on the origins of the Jason Voorhees character -- so that the pic can be released three weeks before Halloween on Friday, Oct. 13. Bay will produce with Platinum Dunes partners Brad Fuller and Andrew Form.
New Line's hired Mark Wheaton ("Son of the Morning Star") to pen the script. Studio [president] Toby Emmerich is overseeing along with execs Cale Boyter and Jeff Katz."

Source: Fangoria.com (02/16/06) "Producer talks new FRIDAY THE 13TH" by Ryan Rotten:
"Suffice to say, rumors have run rampant; for some answers, Fango turned to Plantinum Dunes’ Brad Fuller, who’s co-producing the film with partners Andrew Form and Michael Bay.
"We don’t know exactly what it’s going to be yet; it’s definitely not going to be set after FREDDY VS. JASON or JASON X,” Fuller tells Fango, addressing their film’s place in the FRIDAY universe. “This was such a juicy title, we couldn’t pass it up. So we’ve been talking to Wheaton, and we’re figuring it out. Jason didn’t really start killing until FRIDAY THE 13TH PART 2, so this isn’t a remake of the first one—Jason’s definitely going to be killing people in our movie. He didn’t wear the hockey mask until the third film, and our Jason is definitely going to wear the mask—so this is how we’re going about it right now.
“It feels to me like it’s going to be a re-imagining of…” Fuller pauses, trying to find the right word. “I don’t know if there is a term for it…it’s going to be like what we did with THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE, that’s the best analogy I have. There are going to be things you recognize, but we will make it a distinctively different story. We’re going to keep all of the things that are expected [of a FRIDAY THE 13TH film] in there.”
Early reports stated that New Line was eyeing a release date of Friday, October 13th of this year. As far as this is concerned, Fuller is remaining realistic. Sticking to that deadline would involve nothing less than meticulous yet swift preparation. “We’re not planning on meeting that October date,” he reveals. “It was something that was originally discussed, but we don’t think we should write a script, find a director, cast a movie, and then make a film [that fast]. It deserves time, and we don’t want to rush this. The October date doesn’t feel like something we will be doing; plus we have a movie [TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE: THE ORIGIN] coming out a week before. We’re not going let a release date dictate the film’s quality.”
And who will play the man behind the mask? It’s still too early to tell, but contrary to the recent gossip, it’s not going to be CHAINSAW’s hulking Andrew Bryniarski. “In our mind, he is Leatherface,” says Fuller. “With those two icons, you can’t mix them. I don’t see Andrew Bryniarski playing Jason.”
Source: Variety.com (2/21/06) "Helmer makes plans for 'Friday' - Liebesman to direct next '13th' installment" by Dave McNary
"New Line has tapped horror helmer Jonathan Liebesman to direct the latest incarnation of the "Friday the 13th" franchise, set up at Michael Bay's Platinum Dunes.
Liebesman, who's in final negotiations, has already worked with the studio and Platinum Dunes on "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning," due out in October. His debut feature was 2003's "Darkness Falls" for Revolution.
Bay is producing with Platinum Dunes partners Brad Fuller and Andrew Form. Studio prexy Toby Emmerich is overseeing along with execs Cale Boyter and Jeff Katz.
The yet-to-be-titled pic will be the 11th outing in the "Friday the 13th" franchise, launched in 1980. Mark Wheaton ("Son of the Morning Star") is penning the project, centered on the origins of the Jason Voorhees character as portrayed in the first four pics in the series."
Source: Fangoria.com (5/12/06) "New FRIDAY THE 13TH stalls; producer talks" by Ryan Rotten
"The unlucky nature associated with the number 13 may be spelling bad news for the upcoming FRIDAY THE 13TH film, which began drawing lots of buzz in February and has been the hub of misguided rumors ever since. The last few weeks have ushered a new slice of web-originated gossip which apparently rings very true: the FRIDAY project has been put on indefinite hold.
Set up at Michael Bay’s Platinum Dunes, where THE TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE revved up for a new generation, FRIDAY THE 13TH had attracted scribe Mark (THE MESSENGERS) Wheaton and director John (DARKNESS FALLS) Liebesman. Together they were ready to breathe new life into the franchise, based on a proposal that set out to not necessarily remake the original 1980 film, but not give fans a direct sequel either (see this item for a little clarification).
Now, Fango has received a number of specifics from various sources as to why FRIDAY has stalled out, and all share the common claim that the issue lies with who owns the rights and whether those parties are getting their fare share of the money being made from the new project. “If that’s the case, then you certainly know more than we do here,” Platinum Dunes’ Brad Fuller tells Fango. “I mean, that kind of talk doesn’t even filter in this far to us. But I will say that, yes, FRIDAY THE 13TH has been put on hold until that’s all figured out.”
Oh well, it’s not like Platinum Dunes is hard up for projects at the moment. One in particular is keeping Fuller and his producing partner Andrew Form very busy. “We’re refocusing all of our efforts on the HITCHER remake right now,” says Fuller. “So that’s going to take all of our time. We start shooting this summer, we’ve cast Sophia Bush [as the heroine] and now we’re on the lookout for our Hitcher.” Do they have anyone on their wish list? “No, we usually don’t work that way. We’ll bring people in to the office [to read for the part], and if they’re striking, then great.” Dave Meyers helms the new HITCHER from a Jake Wade (WHEN A STRANGER CALLS) Wall script; Rogue Pictures will release."
Source: Bloody-Disgusting.com (5/12/06) "Platinum Dunes' 'Friday the 13th' Still in the Cards?", interview by Elaine Lamkin
Producer Brad Fuller tells Bloody-Disgusting exclusively during an upcoming interview, "We have been trying to get “Friday the 13th” made for a long time. The rights continue to be a problem, but we are optimistic that those issues will be resolved sometime in the next six months."
