Everyone who has been admiring Amanda Righetti on ‘The Mentalist’ (CBS) has one big reason to cheer. She is going to be the female lead in the new version of Friday the 13th due to be released this February. Amanda has been making steady progress since her days of starring in the teenage-centred ‘O.C.’ and ‘CSI’. These shows rarely did Amanda any justice. Though, she is very appeasing as Grace Van Pelt in the ‘The Mentalist’, a proper female lead role was in order and that is what 2009’s Friday the 13th is going to do for her. The movie promises to be a bit different from the somewhat forgetful sequels that followed the original of 1980-81. For instance, there would be no more hormone-heavy guys making out with their ladies in the creaky camps. Instead, the story revolves around Whitney (played by Amanda Righetti) who is lost in the woods around Crystal Lake and her brother goes around searching for her. The recently-aired promos of Friday the 13th show Amanda putting up some sort of resistance against the rampaging Jason. I hope Amanda ends up making Jason pay for his massacres and returns for another sequel. Sorry if this sounds too optimistic — I would personally hate to see any harm being done to this lady.
