Development
Saw 3D was intended to be the final film in the Saw franchise,[4] with the film being split into two parts. However, Lionsgate Films only allowed the filmmakers to make one more film after Saw VI under-performed at the box office. According to Saw 3D writers Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton, because of the change, "[t]he big reveal of Dr. Gordon was a bit underserved ... Perhaps creating more questions than answers. There were several ideas we never quite figured out. But I don’t want to say what they were, because you never know what might happen in the future."[5]
In February 2016, it was reported that Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger will write the script.[3] In July 2016, it became known that Michael and Peter Spierig will direct the film. Saw: Legacy is currently slated for an October 27, 2017 release date.[1][6]
