The rights issues have finally been worked out and Jason Voorhees is finally back in our lives, with the Jason Universe team resurrecting the horror icon earlier this year to begin a brand new chapter in his historic legacy. That new chapter has already included the short film Sweet Revenge, while the TV series “Crystal Lake” looms on the horizon for sometime next year.
But what about a new movie? Jason Universe’s Robbie Barsamian recently teased that a new Jason Voorhees movie and video game are in the works, and he doubles down on those comments in an interview that was just published in the new issue of SFX Magazine.
“We are actively working on a new movie – which will be the 13th in the franchise – as well as a new video game,” Barsamian teases in the new issue of SFX Magazine (via Games Radar).
Barsamian also teases in the chat with the magazine that Jason will also be returning “in other unexpected ways.” He notes, “We’re exploring a variety of opportunities, but consistently staying focused on authenticity.” Stay tuned for more on the Jason Universe as we learn it.

It features the return of Pennywise in IT: Welcome To Derry, Art the Clown in a new Terrifier game, Jason Voorhees, Leprechaun, Frankenstein, Black Phone, Anne Rice’s Immortal Universe, Halloween Horror Nights and SO MUCH MORE.
