In January 2017, the reboot's working title was reported as "Friday the 13th: Part 13", Platinum Dunes was looking for someone to play a young Jason Voorhees, and production to begin in March 2017, slated for October 13, 2017 release date. On February 6, Paramount officially canceled the project, and Paramount assigned the planned October release date to its upcoming film, "Mother!". On October 10, Shannon and Swift revealed the title of their proposed sequel, "Friday the 13th: Camp Blood – The Death of Jason Voorhees". The rights to the franchise reverted to New Line/Warner Bros. in 2018. Victor Miller, who wrote the original "Friday the 13th" screenplay, asserted that Horror Inc. derived its current copyright to the screenplay from Miller's transfer of copyright to Horror Inc.'s predecessor-in-interest, the Manny Company. Miller sent a Notice of Termination to Horror Inc. on January 26, 2016, purportedly reclaiming his rights to the screenplay and the content contained therein through termination of the transfer of rights he had formerly made to the Manny Company.
