New Line has tapped horror helmer Jonathan Liebesman (Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning, Darkness Falls) to direct the latest incarnation of the "Friday the 13th" franchise for Michael Bay's (Pearl Harbor, Armageddon) production company.
The yet-to-be-titled pic will be the 11th outing in the "Friday the 13th" franchise and will center on the origins of the Jason Voorhees character as portrayed in the first four pics in the series.
