Much to the dismay of both fans and Hodder himself, Ken Kirzinger was selected to play Jason in Freddy vs. Jason, as director Ronny Yu wanted a taller actor for the role.

He still brings his own when it comes down to the fight sequences and the design of the character for that particular film is actually pretty incredible.
Jason had been played a certain way by a lot of actors when the reboot went into production. But the producers and the writers wanted to go in both a new and old direction.
They wanted to return to the fierceness of the earlier movies—Brooker and White in particular—while showcasing a survivalist intelligence that had never been seen in Jason before.
Once again, the role would go to an avid fan of the franchise. Stuntman and actor Derek Mears took the role with incredible enthusiasm and made it his own. At the same time, Mears—being such a huge fan—used a lot of traits from other Jason actors when it felt appropriate as a nod to the fans.
In his new portrayal, he would still include the head tilt, or the Kane Hodder breathing. This devotion to the character really makes me hope he gets offered a second go-round in the hockey mask. He did wonderfully the first time. Remember Me. Please enter your username or email address. You will receive a link to create a new password via email.
