SYNOPSIS
Will Jigsaw return?
Ready for the shocker? Dying to know who will be directing Lionsgate's Saw 4? The Hollywood Reporter confirmed reports early this morning that Darren Lynn Bousman will helm the fourth installment in the popular franchise, which features a killer by the name of Jigsaw who tortures his victims to help them appreciate the life they took for granted. Bousman previously directed Saw II and Saw III for Lionsgate and is also in pre-production on his third feature film, Repo! A Genetic Opera.
Darren Lynn Bousman is set to direct "Saw IV." The director, who helmed the last two installments in the horror franchise, "Saw II" and "Saw III," will begin production in Toronto April 16, Lionsgate and its production partner Twisted Pictures announced Monday, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

"Having Darren behind the camera gives 'Saw IV' a real edge, so to speak," Block said. "He has led this franchise into boxoffice history while proving himself a modern master of psychological terror."
The film is slated for worldwide release on Oct. 26. The "Saw" series has thus far grossed more than $400 million worldwide.
"It's not often that a filmmaker is given the opportunity to follow a genuinely compelling character through two films, much less three," Bousman said. "So I'm very excited about picking up the reins on 'Saw IV,' and delving even deeper into the Jigsaw legend."

thats all there is on this movie...updates are welcome...
AAANNDDHH! Jigsaw is back...he's in the cast

Most recent word is that Jiggy himself, Tobin Bell, has been signed "for five sequels," while another source says saw 5 and 6's production scripts are being prepared too.
WTF! are they doing? 5 and 6??!!! what are they doing? competing with star trek or WHAT??!
my opinion is that even though 2 and 3 were good... they shoulda have left it at saw 1 and remained a classic forever...
