Biography Flash: Jason Voorhees Enters His Multiverse Era

Jason Voorees Biography Flash a weekly Biography.

Jason Voorhees has had a busier week than most actual senators, which is impressive for a man who is both fictional and mostly underwater.

So, biography flash update: in the last few days, the biggest “Jason as a person” development is all about his *unlived* career path. HorrorGeekLife and other genre outlets have been talking about that newly resurfaced unmade sequel where Jason would have stalked Jensen Daggett, the actress who played the final girl in Jason Takes Manhattan, in real life, New Nightmare style. According to that coverage, she’d play herself, with Jason crossing from the franchise into her “real” world with her kids and everything. That script never got made, but it is suddenly in the news again because Daggett has been talking about it in a recent interview, and it feeds right into the current push to expand what they are calling the Jason Universe. Think of it as Jason’s multiverse era: collectibles, games, shows, maybe one day “Jason Voorees goes full meta and gets a SAG card.”

Speaking of the Jason Universe, recent reporting on it ties directly into his long term biography: there is another Friday the 13th movie in development as part of this initiative, pitched as multiple projects across platforms built around a rebooted Jason. That is not just random merch; that is franchise canon-setting stuff. If you are writing his life story in 20 years, this is one of those “and then the IP industrial complex resurrected him again” chapters.

On the TV side, the fan site Fridaythe13thFranchise dot com has been amplifying chatter that teenage Jason will appear in the final episode of season one of Crystal Lake, the A24 prequel series for Peacock. It is not officially confirmed, but if it pans out, that is a big biographical milestone: we would finally see a more sustained, character-driven version of Jason before he becomes the mute murder tank we know and maybe slightly regret loving.

On the merch front, Mephitsu’s toy coverage just highlighted NECA’s new Toony Terrors Retro Jason from Friday the 13th: The Game, up for preorder. Not canon, but it keeps his image in circulation, which for a fictional killer is basically oxygen.
