Nick Jonas & Priyanka Chopra Wild Golf Cart Ride to Oscars ... Cart Almost Tips Over!!!

Published | Updated

Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra nearly had a wipeout before even hitting the red carpet at the Oscars ... after their golf cart ride to the entrance got a little too wild.

We're told the couple's Sprinter van didn't get clearance to drive all the way through the security perimeter near the Dolby Theatre Sunday ... forcing organizers to hustle them the rest of the way in a golf cart.

TMZ obtained video showing the cart moving fast as staff rushed Nick and Priyanka toward the carpet to keep them on schedule. When the driver made a sharp turn with a quick burst of acceleration, the vehicle rocked so hard one of the wheels actually lifts off the ground, nearly tipping over.

Nick and Priyanka held on as the cart swerved its way up toward the theater ... thankfully the driver managed to keep all four wheels down.

In the end, the couple made it to the Oscars right on time and looking red-carpet ready just with a little unexpected thrill ride first.

Published

It's Friday the 13th ... so what better day to find out a new film in the popular slasher franchise may be on the way?!

Here's the deal ... there hasn't been a 'Jason' film in several years ... and we're told it's all been a matter of rights issues -- both between the two creators and two major studios. But it seems those issues will likely be resolved ... and a new film project is being crafted.

Franchise co-creator Sean Cunningham tells TMZ ... a film treatment for an "old school" Jason flick is done ... and he's hopeful that, with the mega-merger of Warner Bros. and Paramount, the project will gain serious traction because he says both studios have rights --and that's been a major hurdle.
