The SAW Sequel JIGSAW Gets a New Photo and Story Details

Jigsaw directors The Spierig Brothers (Daybreakers) are also talking about what you should expect from the next installment of the Saw films, saying:

“Bodies are turning up, and they’re linked to Jigsaw — or a Jigsaw copycat,” said Peter Spierig. “The DNA of Tobin Bell is all over this film.”

“We’ve got some pretty wild traps in the film — we don’t shy away from the gore,” says Michael Spierig. “It’s such a perfect Halloween scarefest. It’s perhaps not quite as vicious and more fun, which is something we tried to inject into it. But it’s still full of good fun gore, that’s for sure. And, on top of that, it’s got a really great mystery, and there’s very interesting twists. It’s ‘Saw’ for 2017.”

At this point, if you don't know what Saw is all about, it's on you. Jigsaw comes seven years after Saw: The Final Chapter and stars Laura Vandervoort and Hannah Anderson. 

Saw is a pretty lucrative horror franchise, and all seven previous Saw films have a combined worldwide box office gross upwards of $870 million.
