Chris Rock's SAW reboot was all set to bring the pain to a theater near you in Summer 2020. And today we're hearing from the new film's director Darren Lynn Bousman that a new scene in the film might give the infamous "needle pit" scene from Bousman's own SAW II some competition.
Specifically, Bousman tweets:
ugh… cutting a scene right now on SAW and it makes me want to take a shower… needle pit might have some competition.
That's a bold statement.
Described as "Saw on steroids," we don't know much about the plot specifics of this reboot other than Rock will play a police detective investigating a series of grizzly crimes with Samuel L. Jackson playing his father, Max Minghella as his partner, and Marisol Nichols as his boss, Capt. Angie Garza.
This re-imagining will be directed by Darren Lynn Bousman, who helmed three of the most successful films in the franchise, and is being touted as
An amped up level of deviously treacherous traps, clever clues and the edge-of-the-seat suspense they expect from one of the world’s most terrifying horror franchises.
Bousman directs the new flick from a script based on a story by Chris Rock and written by Pete Goldfinger and Josh Stolberg. It will be executive produced by Chris Rock, long-time executive producer Daniel Heffner and the original creators James Wan, and Leigh Whannell. It will be produced by longtime SAW producers Mark Burg and Oren Koules. Originally set to be unleashed in October, it will now bring the pain on May 15, 2020.
