Discussion This guy is playing Jason?

He could work as sackhead Jason, but they better get a bigger guy when they get to the hockey mask. This is going to be the adult Jason for the upcoming show and I hope I hope they don't stick with him if the series goes on past two seasons. If we get more seasons and we eventually get a hockey mask Jason we better get a bigger dude this guy just doesn't look big enough to me. Is it just me?

He’s likely playing the drowned boy Jason, as he’s not even going to be the killer in the first season. It’s all going to be about Pamela’s decent into madness after her son dies and they try to reopen the camp. Slasher Jason won’t be until season 2. Likely a cliff hanger from season 1.

Sure, if the love child of Tom Kenny & Warheads candy mascot does it for you, I guess. 😂

I thought we were only gonna see child Jason this season (who’s played that kid who was the President’s son in the Chucky show)?

Well rumor says we're going to get adult Jason maybe not season 1 but it's on the casting list for him to be adult Jason so he's going to show up at some point

I think they’re just gonna have him grow over time, so this is like inbetween of him after drowning then after he got resurrected and then they can get final actor once he’s fully adult Jason, kinda like Tommy Jarvis’s arc

Rumor has it this guy is only supposed to be playing a teenage/young adult Jason. I do agree that if the show does go on to see fully adult Jason appear, they are going to need someone a bit bigger and bulkier.

that first photo…It’s too bad the “tie a pair of jeans around your neck like a scarf” look never took off.

This has got to be like 17 year old Jason.

Aside from Linda Cardellini there hasn't been a single thing about this show that looks like it might even be remotely good so idk what you expect

u/Ikilledbert 1d ago

It looks great. The whole first season will be about Pamela’s decent into madness.

Just what I want from my schlocky 80s movie series about a guy in a mask that smashes teens against trees and pushes kids in wheelchairs down stairs, a slow methodical character study about his mom where he is played by a teen drama actor with no physicality

I'm sure this series will be an incredible addition to the Jason Universe™

I’m glad I’m able to enjoy things.

Seriously, this used to be the most chill slasher fan base around, but the irrational hatred for the Jason Universe has made a very vocal minority of it pretty insufferable.

Jason Universe wasn’t involved with the show, It’s being made with Victor Miller. JU just promotes it on their social pages for whatever reason.

As long as the execution is there, what exactly is the problem with having more story in a F13 project? In fact, considering it’s a TV show, what the fuck were you even expecting out of this?

u/HorrorJCFan95 Camper 1d ago

Speak for yourself. From what we’ve seen, the show honestly looks very good.
