Halloween's Danielle Harris Is Bummed About The Reboot

Harris was an integral part of the series in two of the 1980s sequels to John Carpenter ’s original slasher film , as well as a prominent character in Rob Zombie ’s re - imaginings of boogeyman Michael Myers .

Her character was Jamie Lloyd , the daughter of Laurie Strode ( Jamie Lee Curtis ) and therefore the niece of the titulary psychopath .

With all that in brain , it ’s would n’t be a huge leap of religion to perhaps anticipate some contribution from Harris in the new variant currently in production with Blumhouse . However , it seems that wo n’t happen and Harris voiced her notion in a Facebook chat over the weekend ( as was report byBloody Disgusting ):

" I ’m bummed out . And here ’s why I ’m loll around out … I ’ve done four Halloween movies , and I ’m grateful for those picture . I ’m forever grateful and indebted to the Halloween franchise . It ’s been good to me … What I am bummed about is [ Laurie Strode ] has a daughter . I was o.k. with it when she had a son , but they ’re aver it ’s the last one and … she has a girl . And it ’s not Jamie . It ’s just kind of a bummer , I guess . "

Unlike others , Harris embraced horror movies from her early years , and has remain a ' Scream Queen ' . She ’s appeared in several other horror franchises likeHatchetand has a big movie catalog in the musical genre , having directed two of her own ( Prank , Among admirer ) . This has given her a truehearted buff base in the pic community , so her feelings certainly do n’t seem to be number from a damaging home . It ’s more to do with philia and a protective feeling for her very first film persona , which held such an importance in theHalloweencanon at one point .

If initial reports are to be believed , next year ’s David Gordon Green - directed film will be adirect follow - on from the original 1978 filmand ignore every sequel ’s persistence since then . As such , Jamie Lloyd wo n’t even exist in this variation . Instead , Judy Greer will be play Laurie Strode ’s girl , who will now be call Karen . It ’s even be speculated that Laurie will no longer be Michael ’s sister in this update . All that aside , it would have still been cool to see a cameo of some kind from Harris , even without playing her original character . In the meantime , we ’ll bring you any further updates on the newHalloweenas we get them .
