Lionsgate has released the first trailer for Jigsaw, the eighth film in the Saw horror franchise. You can watch the Jigsaw trailer using the player below, and don’t miss the film’s new viral site at JigsawSaves.com. Like all of the films before it, Jigsaw will arrive just ahead of Halloween on October 27.
The upcoming sequel, which fittingly comes seven years after Saw: The Final Chapter, will star Laura Vandervoort (Bitten, Smallville) and Hannah Anderson (Shoot the Messenger, Lizzie Borden Took an Ax). Additional cast members have yet to be confirmed, but given the title change, it’s a safe bet that none other than Tobin Bell will return as the titular villain. The feature was shot mostly in secret last fall.
The eighth Saw movie is directed by Michael and Peter Spierig (Daybreakers) from a script by Pete Goldfinger and Josh Stolberg (Piranha 3D, Sorority Row) alongside original creators James Wan and Leigh Whannell. Mark Burg, Gregg Hoffman, and Oren Koules are producing, as they have on all the previous films in the franchise.
All seven previous Saw films have a combined worldwide box office gross upwards of $870 million on a combined budget of roughly $67 million.
