Take this news with a big grain of salt. If it can indeed be considered news.

Bloody Disgusting is reporting that Lionsgate is actively developing SAW VIII, although the site admits that there is “nothing official on paper, nor a direction set in stone.” The site’s sources are evidently solid, but there is nothing to be gleaned from the news item other than the studio is “incredibly active” in resurrecting the series, which went out with a whimper three years ago with SAW: THE FINAL CHAPTER.
