The IP also got tangled in complex rights deals as it moved from Paramount to New Line and became caught in a years-long copyright dispute between the original movie’s director-producer Sean S. Cunningham and original screenwriter Victor Miller.
In May, Miller emerged victorious, giving him control over the script and original characters but not over the Friday the 13th title nor the concept of an adult Jason or even the hockey mask, which was only introduced in the third movie.
Hence the title of the Peacock offering, Crystal Lake.
Gonna be a tough task making this an interesting series given the limitations. Victor Miller is EPing the project. He got the rights to the original F13 characters and script but can’t use the mask and elements we know and love from adult Jason.I'll give it a shot. Hopefully we get some grown man Jason somewhere soon.
Mason Vorehees gonna be killing naked camp counselors while wearing a football helmetI'll give it a shot. Hopefully we get some grown man Jason somewhere soon.
Fuller’s track record says he probably won’t stay with it long.Tempted to check based on Fuller a part of it, but if Jason ain’t in it cutting up fools idk.
