The iconic Saw franchise, known for its chilling tales of a serial killer, is back with its tenth installment. With over $1 billion in box office earnings, Saw is set to return this September, just in time for Halloween.
In 2021, writer Josh Stolberg hinted at Saw X in a tweet. He mentioned that he was polishing up the script for the upcoming film and assured fans that it would make them very happy, especially the fans of the main character, John Kramer, who is battling terminal cancer. With this installment, the plot will delve into the past of Saw and take audiences on a thrilling journey.
What is the plot of ‘Saw X’?
The tenth film in the series will fill in the gap between the original Saw movie and its sequel. Serving as a direct sequel to the first film and a prequel to the second, it transports viewers back in time to explore John Kramer’s story. The film’s synopsis sets the stage:
“Set between the events of Saw and Saw II, a sick and desperate John Kramer 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. Armed with a newfound purpose, the infamous serial killer returns to his work, turning the tables on the con artists in his signature visceral way through devious, deranged, and ingenious traps.”
What is the release date for ‘Saw X’?
The filming of Saw X wrapped up in February 2023, after five months of production. Initially, the film was scheduled for an October 27 release, aligning with Halloween. However, it was moved forward to September.
The current release date for Saw X is September 29, 2023. This will create a unique cinematic experience as Saw X and “Paw Patrol: The Mighty Movie” go head to head in theaters. Paramount Pictures playfully named this double feature event “Saw Patrol,” generating excitement among horror enthusiasts.

The esteemed actor Tobin Bell will reprise his role as the cunning and deranged serial killer, John Kramer or Jigsaw, in Saw X. Paramount Pictures recently unveiled the first look of Saw X, showcasing Bell’s return as Kramer. The film’s producers, Mark Burg and Oren Koules, expressed their enthusiasm about Bell’s involvement in the project:
“What a thrill to be reuniting with Tobin. His performance as John Kramer is part of the magic that made this franchise a phenomenon, and his character is an active part of this film.”
