Amanda Righetti finally gets her due as she plays the female lead in Michael Bay’s Friday the 13th. I guess it was only a matter of time before Amanda got some meaty roles and Friday the 13th could just give her the sort of limelight she had been searching for. Set for a February release, the latest among many remakes of the original 1980 masterpiece has Amanda playing the character of Whitney. The movie’s trailers do give some hint into the stylish yet very crude-looking murder sequences and the heightened level of gut-wrenching twists that have been added to the original plot. Amanda’s character is the sister of Clay (Jared Padalecki) who loses herself in the woods surrounding Crystal Lake where another set of campers have arrived, unaware of Jason lurking in the shadows and intent on tearing them apart. Amanda has held her own in the past when she appeared on TV shows like The O.C. and Entourage and this is her chance to get noticed by the big studios. What could prove definitive is the presence of Michael Bay in the production. He is known to bring his own sense of slickness and this retake on Friday the 13th should be no exception.
