Development
After the release of the 2009 film, rumors started that a sequel would happen, as it was the second-heights grossing film in the franchise, but everything went quit and plans for the film never came about. On October 31, 2017, Mike posted on social media that Paramount, New Line and himself were "working on a project", but then nothing came of it until January 1, 2018 when posting an update to his tweet from October, saying that "the green light has been given to us. Let's rock!", attaching a picture of Jason in front of a moon, looking on at a bloody river with the number "13" in the river, with the night sky behind him. This image would eventually become the theatrical poster for the film.

in March, New Line and Paramount hired Adam Green to write it. Adam and Mike would work on the script, with the pair finishing the script in February. New Line and Paramount also hired Tom Savini to come back to the series after 35 years and work on the practical effects, which was also stated by Mike in an interview when promoting the film.

The principal photography began in February 2018 with it finishing in May 2018. In early January 2019, Derek posted a picture of him in the Jason costume, standing in front of a shadowy figure, saying, "Mike and myself had a talk with the studio for an idea we had, they told us run with it. So we decided to go into a barn we used for a few scenes, and film a post credit scene. Hope you all enjoy." On July 31, 2019, Jackie Earle Haley posted a picture of the Freddy Kruger glove used in the 2010 reboot on a table, saying, "9 years later. I had a lot of fun using doing this role. Maybe it's time to put the glove back on again." Hinting at a possible return as Freddy. Later that day, rumors ramped up that either a sequel to the 2010 reboot was in the works, or he was the shadowy figure in the picture Derek Mears posted back in January.

The film is set to be released on August 9, 2019
