A SAW Spin-Off Is Being Developed - Details Within!



Bringing you the best in Horror Movie News, and all things Horror.

Comedian Chris Rock has been making us laugh for years but now it looks as though Rock wants to try something different. He is looking to executive produce a new entry into Lionsgate's SAW franchise in the form of a spin-off.

In addition to executive producing this new spin-off SAW film, Rock has also put together the story which will be written by Pete Goldfinger and Josh Stolberg, who wrote 2017's JIGSAW.

Darren Lynn Bousman, who directed SAW II, III, and IV, will return to direct the spinoff, which is currently untitled.

Joining Rock as executive producers are the creators of SAW themselves, James Wan and Leigh Whannell, with Daniel Heffner also executive producing, and Mark Burg and Oren Koules on board as producers.

A diehard Saw fan, Rock shared his excitement about the collaboration (via Variety):

“I’ve been a fan of ‘Saw’ since the first film in 2004. I am excited by the opportunity to take this to a really intense and twisted new place.”


At this time there is no word yet if Tobin Bell will return to reprise his role as John Kramer, aka the Jigsaw Killer.

The SAW spin-off is scheduled to come out in theaters on October 23rd, 2020 from Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures.
