Lionsgate has just released, online, the official trailer for Saw X (USA - 2023), the tenth installment of the horror saga Saw conceived by James Wan and Leigh Whannell. The film is a prequel and the story fits between the events of Saw and Saw II, with Tobin Bell again as John Kramer/Jigsaw, the franchise's iconic character, and with Shawnee Smith as Amanda Young.
Produced by Twisted Pictures in partnership with Lionsgate, the film is directed by Kevin Greutert (Saw VI, Saw 3D - The Final Chapter, Jackals - The Jackal Cult) and will debut in U.S. theaters on Sept. 29.
Plot: John Kramer (Tobin Bell). a now sick and desperate man, decides to travel to Mexico to undergo a risky experimental surgery in hopes of finding a miracle cure for his cancer. However, John will be disappointed when he discovers that the entire operation is a scam on the weak. Precisely because of this, he will try to punish the scammers with new, ingenious and evil traps....
In the cast of Saw X: 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), Michael Beach (Dahmer).
Instead, the script is by Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger, the screenwriters of Jigsaw and Spiral.
The new Saw was announced by Lionsgate and Twisted Pictures last August after Spiral - Saw's Legacy, the reboot directed by Darren Lynn Bousman (Saw II, Saw III and Saw IV) and starring Chris Rock in 2021.
