Jonathan Liebesman, director of the upcoming "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" prequel, is in negotiations to direct the remake of horror classic "Friday the 13th" for New Line Cinema.

"Friday" made Jason, the unstoppable hockey mask-wearing killer, a 1980s horror icon, though the serial killer made only a brief appearance in the final frames of the first movie. Jason didn't even don the famous mask until the third movie.

Jason will wear the mask for the remake, written by Mark Wheaton, which will incorporate components of the franchise's films. The setting will be that of the first movie, Crystal Lake.

Liebesman is wrapping production on the untitled "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" prequel, which, like the "Friday" remake, is produced by Platinum Dunes for New Line.

A Friday the 13th does fall in October this year, and there was speculation that the movie would be made quickly to capitalize on that. But Platinum Dunes and New Line already have scheduled the "Texas Chainsaw" prequel for release that month, on October 6. "Friday" will be a 2007 release.

FUCK, why remake it???????? and he's gonna wear the mask? i mean, this is going to far....

A remake is a better idea than continuing from Jason X. Fuck that shit. The first movie wasn't all that great except for the ending anyway.

Fuck a remake. You want to start from scracth? Give us another Tommy Jarvis-type of thing, where one protagonist makes it through a few movies. Don't try to get into the origin of a guy when that origin can be covered in a 3 minute flashback.

This is where people are getting horror movies wrong, especially this dickhead. In the Texas Chain Saw Massacre remake, he did the same thing, trying to explain the why. The why doesn't matter. Explaining the why takes away from the horror.

The thing that was so haunting about the orginal TCM was that you didn't know why these people were that way.

If you're talking about Jason or his mother's motivations, the "why" has always been absolutely clear. A self-contained Friday remake would be better than designing it to continue endlessly. They can do that in a re-make. It's already established that that's impossible in the current series.
