Final Girl Adrienne King Returns To "Crystal Lake" For Upcoming Friday The 13th Peacock Series
After a long 14yrs, we are finally getting the Friday The 13th franchise back on the screen with new Peacock original show “Crystal Lake.” Yep, you guessed it, it’s Jason origin story time all over again with this one and you can thank A24 and Bryan Fuller for this one.
We have no word on a premier date but we can confirm a few things about the upcoming series. Final girl Adrienne King is coming to the show in a recurring role and so far one episode is being written by Kevin Williamson (Scream, Sick).
Variety had detailed, “The show will be written by Bryan Fuller, who is also the showrunner and an executive producer. Victor Miller, who penned the original film in the franchise, will also executive produce along with Marc Toberoff, Rob Barsamian, and A24.”
Eric Goldman tweets from the screening, “They officially start writing in 2 weeks. It will have two scores to choose from – a modern one and a classic Manfredini one. Kevin Williamson is writing an episode. Adrienne King will have a recurring role.”
“Fuller has pitched four seasons for Crystal Lake. Only one officially ordered so far though he notes Peacock would have to pay a pretty hefty penalty if they didn’t order a Season 2,” Goldman’s thread continues. “Asked if he can confirm Pamela’s role in the Crystal Lake series, Fuller replied “We’re honestly going to be covering it all. The series is covering the life and times of these two characters” (presumably he’s referring to Pamela and Jason there!).”
Stay tuned for more as we learn it.
