Both Tobin Bell and Shawnee Smith are back for this year’s Saw 10, currently scheduled for release on October 27, 2023, and we’ve learned that filming has now wrapped!
Franchise stalwart Kevin Greutert, who directed the highly regarded Saw VI and Saw: The Final Chapter, and edited Saw I through V and Jigsaw, is directing the project. Greutert took to Twitter today to announce that filming has wrapped on what he lovingly calls Saw X, with a note that he hopes this title sticks.
Greutert stated, “I hope we can use the title ‘Saw X’ because this chapter really gets back to the roots of what makes SAW so special to me and everyone else who loves John Kramer’s saga.”
While plot details remain scarce at this time, the director’s tease of Kramer’s return in a “blood-spitting beast of a story” is intriguing. Perhaps the bigger question is how Smith’s Amanda enters the equation, and what devious traps has Jigsaw concocted this time?
That Greutert also includes “the phenomenal prosthetics team at Fractured FX” among his many thanks on Twitter bodes well for Saw X.
Returning players Bell and Smith star alongside Renata Vaca (“Midnight Family”), Paulette Hernandez (“Crown of Tears”), Joshua Okamoto (“Control-Z”), and Octavio Hinojosa (Come Play With Me), Synnøve Macody Lund (Ragnarok), Steven Brand (The Sandman) and Michael Beach (Dahmer) in the sequel. The script was penned by veteran franchise scribes Josh Stolberg (Jigsaw, Spiral) and Pete Goldfinger (Jigsaw, Spiral).
Lionsgate previously teased of the sequel, “The return of Tobin Bell to the franchise furthers Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures’ goal of a film that captures everything Saw fans love about the franchise while also keeping them guessing with all-new traps and a new mystery to solve.”
Stay tuned for more on “Saw X” as we learn it, and prepare for the franchise’s bloody return just in time for Halloween 2023.
Just wrapped shooting on Saw X, and though the challenges were huge (easy films are rarely worthwhile in the end), it was one of the most rewarding and epic experiences of my life. Cast and crew were firing on all cylinders, pic.twitter.com/uTMH7YzcfI
