Saw Legacy
It is not easy for a saga to reach eight films, but with "Saw Legacy" it is being achieved, as has also happened with "At full throttle." In the new film, which will feature his unmistakable and terrifying stamp, Australians Michael and Peter Spierig will direct. Of course, nothing is known about the cast, beyond the rumors that put Tobin Bell back in it.
Lionsgate also maintains the mystery with the plot of the eighth film of "Saw", but paying attention to the images leaked by a follower, in them Jigsaw's grave is seen / John Kramer, and it is empty, so it is rumored that his character will return ... at least dead if someone has unearthed his body ... why would they want to? This character died in the third installment, but appeared in some of the later ones as flashbacks.
Those responsible for the saga realized long ago that the character of Jigsaw has millions of followers around the world, so they want to be included again, who knows even if they are going to resurrect him in some way. We will have to wait for the official synopsis of «Saw Legacy» to know what it is about. The previous 7 have raised almost 900 million dollars worldwide.
