About 20 seconds of "Halloween 2" footage was previewed on a recent episode of "Entertainment Tonight."

The exclusive first look features a quick flash of his mask, which is the subject of considerable rumors, including the fact that it may not appear in much of the film. Zombie is now indicating that it may have a larger role than rumors suggest.

"Another question that seem to have been asked quite a bit is about the mask," Zombie said in a MySpace post. "Their have been reports and rumors that he only wears the mask 25 percent of the time or not at all.

"Well, the truth is the movie is just now being edited so the exact percentage of mask wearing is unclear at this point. But fear not, Michael is seen wearing the mask as much if not more than you've ever seen him wearing a mask in any Halloween film."

Take a look at the "Halloween 2" preview below.
