Rumor Control: Sequel Date Not Confirmed For July 13, 2012
By jasonsfury • August 18, 2010

A few fans have emailed with some information and concerns over what was mentioned on NPR (National Public Radio) this past Friday, August 13th. I did not listen to the show, but apparently, Garrison Keeler of Prairie Home Companion mentioned Friday July 13, 2012 as the release date for the next Friday the 13th film.

We at Friday The 13th: The Website have received the cricket sounds when looking into this date and no other horror related website has even mentioned the tiniest little wimper about the July date being a possible release for a new Jason Voorhees romp. We have not heard back word from Warner Bros. yet, but the feeling here is that Garrison Keeler may have been throwing out a “possible” date.

Surprisingly, a number of people had emailed about this, so it made sense to squash the rumor for the time being and wait for something more concrete. Thanks to the site visitors for writing in about this topic!

Would be cool.

Aside from rumors, the last official news release stated that the sequel "has no movement at the present time" aka development hell.

At the time Platinum Dunes put all of their work towards the Nightmare on Elm Street remake (which is officially greenlit for a sequel).

Coming up is the remake of Monster Squad and they are also doing an unknown action flick.

The Friday the 13th sequel is currently on hold and who knows when or if it will happen at this point.

The film had a decent run but it dropped tremendously. It opened at #1 but by its third week it was already out of the Top 10.
