Friday the 13th Blumhouse Movie Update Given by Jason Blum

Jason Blum has stated that he’s still trying to “will” a Blumhouse Friday the 13th movie into existing as he’s a huge fan of the franchise.

Speaking with Collider, Blum was asked what one project he’d love to greenlight. The CEO and founder of Blumhouse revealed that he’d love to greenlight a Blumhouse Friday the 13th movie and that director and producer James Wan and his Atomic Monster company are equally passionate about the franchise.

“Friday the 13th is what I would do,” Blum said. “It’s not a Blumhouse project, but I’m trying to will it into being one. It’s just a piece of IP I’ve always loved … And James Wan and Atomic Monster are very passionate about it, and I think we would have them shepherd it for us. That would be a lot of fun.”

This isn’t the first time that Blum has expressed interest in Friday the 13th, with him mentioning it as recently as last October.

What Friday the 13th projects are currently in the works?

A new Friday the 13th TV series titled Crystal Lake is planned with original star Adrienne King involved, but the movie side is currently wide open. It’s been a while since an update about Crystal Lake came out, though it sounds as though the series has somewhat free reign with the Friday the 13th lore.
