Lionsgate Announces Saw XI Coming in 2024
Lionsgate has just announced that they are moving forward with the next installment of the popular horror franchise, Saw XI. Prepare yourselves for more traps and punishment as this installment is set to release on September 2024, almost exactly one year from the previous film’s release.
The official social media accounts of Lionsgate shared teaser art along with the tagline “The Game Continues…” — a fitting and intriguing hint as to what awaits us in this new chapter. We can’t help but speculate about the diabolical games Jigsaw will have in store for his victims this time and where in the timeline this upcoming entry would possibly take place.
The news of another Saw sequel shouldn’t come as a surprise, considering the financial success of the franchise. Saw X, released between Saw I and Saw II, managed to gross an impressive $107 million worldwide. This proves that there is still a strong demand for Jigsaw’s unique brand of horror led by the iconic Tobin Bell.
In Saw X, viewers were taken on a dark journey with a terminally ill John Kramer, aka Jigsaw, as he desperately searched for a cure for his cancer. This led him to Mexico, where he became entangled in a deceptive scam. Betrayed and defrauded, Jigsaw turned his sights on this group of opportunists, setting the stage for a twisted and challenging game of punishment and redemption.
What’s exciting about Saw X is that it showcased the unexplored depths of Jigsaw’s ingenuity. The film delved into a small window of time between previous installments, revealing that there are still plenty of tricks up Jigsaw’s sleeve. As the franchise continues, it has the potential to take us anywhere on Jigsaw’s long and dark journey.
While no director has been announced for Saw XI, we hope that Kevin Greutert, who has helmed several previous installments, might return to oversee the twisted vision of Jigsaw once again. Additionally, Tobin Bell‘s return as Jigsaw and Shawnee Smith‘s possible reprisal of her role as Amanda is both highly expected and anticipated.
Get ready to enter Jigsaw’s sadistic world once again, as Saw XI promises to push the limits of horror for fans of the franchise. Stay tuned for more updates and prepare yourselves for the game to continue…
