Quentin Tarantino to direct Friday the 13th?
Quentin Tarantino director of movie flicks such as 'Reservoir Dogs' and 'Pulp Fiction' will now try his hand with horror film 'Friday the 13th,' as both Hollywood director and New Line Cinema are scheduled to meet this week. If everything works out according to the plan, it could be Tarantino’s first film outside Miramax Films as a director.
Tarantino is also considering writing as well as directing the next “Friday the 13 th,” which stars the hockey mask-wearing pyschopath Jason Voorhees, as the Oscar-winning director already has a story and opening montage worked out in his head.
His agent said Tarantino always dreamt of doing a Jason movie. New Line Cinema, which grossed $82 million at the US box office for its 2003 episode Freddy Vs Jason, is also anxious to get another sequel in production.
