Since Saw opened in theaters in October 2004, the horror series has become a pop culture phenomenon, with new entries released annually for seven years. Over the past decade, the franchise has seen multiple attempts to relaunch, including 2017’s Jigsaw, 2021’s Spiral: From the Book of Saw, and 2023’s Saw X. The franchise has generated $1.1 billion at the worldwide box office. Now, after years of development, Saw 11 is back on track as Lionsgate has hired a talented horror filmmaker to take over the series.
