MW: Jason Blum trying to acquire the rights to both Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th (FRI12) franchises. Jun 20, 09:35
Blum: "Have been trying to make both for years. Can’t get rights." Jun 20, 09:44

The article is about getting Robert Englund back if he gets the right. He doesn't even talk about FRI12. {nm} Jun 20, 09:53
Blum is doing press for BPHON, so it's just his speculation. He can't develop what he doesn't own. {nm} Jun 20, 09:55
Copyright termination on FRI12 was "supposed to" happen after that September ruling, so maybe sooner on that? Jun 20, 09:53
