A sequel to the original Saw movie, new franchise installment Saw X is headed to theaters on September 29, and a VERY interesting new poster has arrived this morning.
Rather than showcasing a bloody saw or a severed body part, this latest Saw X poster promises that the film “cuts through time,” and the art calls back to previous Saw installments.
The Mayan calendar-inspired art is LOADED with references to the franchise’s past, suggesting that the new movie aims to be a truly satisfying full circle moment for the saga.
What we already know about Saw X is that it’s set between the events of Saw and Saw II, with both Tobin Bell and Shawnee Smith returning to play Jigsaw and Amanda Young.
But what exactly does Lionsgate mean when they say the movie “cuts through time”? The franchise has been known to play around with its own timeline in the past, so we are mighty intrigued by this deeply mysterious piece of art. Check it out below. Speculate wildly. Have fun.
Lionsgate teases, “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.”
“John Kramer (Tobin Bell) is back for the untold chapter of Jigsaw’s final games.”
“Set between the events of Saw I and II, a sick and desperate John travels to Mexico for a risky and experimental medical procedure in hopes of a miracle cure for his cancer – only to discover the entire operation is a scam to defraud the most vulnerable.
“The infamous killer returns to his work, turning the tables on the con artists in his signature visceral way through devious, deranged, and ingenious traps.”
The cast for Saw X also includes Renata Vaca (“Midnight Family”), Paulette Hernandez (“Crown of Tears”), Joshua Okamoto (“Control-Z”), Octavio Hinojosa (Come Play With Me), Synnøve Macody Lund (Ragnarok), Steven Brand (The Sandman) and Michael Beach (Dahmer).
Franchise mainstay Kevin Greutert directed Saw X.
