They already have Saw XII planned, in 3D nonethless, now it seems Saw VIII might be already in the works. In a recent article from the Hollywood Reporter, which talks about Clive Barker’s new series (which is scripted by Saw IV-VI writers Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton), someone drops a dime on the franchise’s future plans.
“The pair wrote the previous two movies in the [Saw] franchise and also penned the screenplay to this fall’s “Saw VI.” They are attached to write as many as two of the movies beyond that.”
So unless Saw VI loses more steam than V, Jigsaw will keep coming back every Halloween.
