Saw’s Tobin Bell Being Eyed to Return as Jigsaw in Upcoming Film

One Take News brings word that Tobin Bell could be reprising his role as John Kramer/Jigsaw in an upcoming Saw film, reportedly intended to be “a John Kramer story.” According to the outlet, the movie would be told from Kramer’s point of view and could take place before Saw III.

The script for the potential tenth feature in the franchise, written by Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger, is in the early stages. It has not yet been confirmed if talks have officially begun with Bell to make his possible return to the franchise.

The news comes a few weeks following co-writer Stolberg posting on social media about “polishing up the next Saw script” and promising that the next film is going to make “John Kramer fans very happy.”

Bell didn’t appear in the most recent Saw installment, Spiral, which starred Chris Rock, Max Minghella, and Samuel L. Jackson. Written by Stolberg and Goldfinger, the horror feature was directed by Darren Lynn Bousman, who previously helmed Saw II, Saw III, and Saw IV.
