We have gathered all the latest information on Saw 11, also known as Saw XI, including release date, cast, and plot details.
Saw X was released earlier this year and successfully reinvigorated the enduring horror series by prominently featuring the iconic character John Kramer (played by Tobin Bell).
He made a powerful comeback, with the film showcasing some of the most ruthless traps yet and a unexpected cameo in the mid-credits scene. Saw X was a major success, bringing in $107.7 million at the box office on a $13 million budget. It's no wonder that an 11th movie has been approved – here's what we know.
Saw XI release date: When’s it out?
Saw 11 will arrive in cinemas on September 27, 2024.
The release of Saw 11 just a year after Saw 10 is an incredibly fast turnaround. What's even more exciting is that the announcement of Saw 11 coincided with the release date – December 2023.

Producers have less than a year to release the film, but there have been hints that the franchise will continue. Details about the production schedule are scarce, but we will update this space as new information becomes available.
Saw XI cast: Who might be in it?
While the cast details are still unconfirmed, Tobin Bell has consistently returned as John Kramer in all Saw films except Spiral, so it's likely that he will do so again in Saw 11.
Costas Mandylor, who portrayed Mark Hoffman, also known as the second Jigsaw, is expected to make a comeback. His unexpected cameo in the mid-credits scene of Saw X hints at his potential return in Saw 11, although this has not been officially confirmed yet.

Shawnee Smith could potentially make an appearance in Saw 11, as she reprised her role as Amanda Young in the tenth movie. Mark Burg, a longtime producer of the Saw films, revealed that many past actors have expressed interest in returning for future movies if Saw X is successful, as the possibilities are wide open for bringing back characters from the past.
We’ll be sure to keep this space updated with cast details when they arrive.
Saw XI plot: What might it be about?
The official plot for Saw 11 has not been released yet, but the producers hinted to Dexerto that if the movie gets approved, it will focus on Hoffman. When asked if the mid-credits scene sets up a Saw movie centered on Hoffman's character, the producers confirmed, "yes." Burg added, "Oren [Koules] and myself are superstitious so we never talk about another movie until this movie opens. But should this movie open well, and should Lionsgate want to make another one, that’s exactly where we’re going with the next one."
Koules explained that Jigsaw always appears to be one step ahead, so in this movie, they wanted to reveal that he has been in contact with Detective Hoffman for a long time. This adds a new layer for fans to realize that Jigsaw has been aware of things much earlier than previously shown in the movies.
Hoffman's death in Saw 3D is commonly accepted, but the franchise's non-linear timeline is well-known. Saw X will delve into Kramer's past, prompting speculation that Saw 11 may do the same for Hoffman as Kramer's apprentice.
No official plot details have been released, but more gruesome traps can be expected in the next installment. We will keep this space updated with any new information.

Editor's P/S
As a die-hard fan of the Saw franchise, I am thrilled about the upcoming release of Saw XI. The latest installment promises to deliver even more of the intense, heart-pounding horror that has made this series so popular. I can't wait to see what new traps and twists the filmmakers have in store for us.
The return of Tobin Bell as John Kramer is particularly exciting. Bell's portrayal of the Jigsaw Killer is truly iconic, and his presence adds an extra layer of authenticity to the franchise. I'm also eager to see if Costas Mandylor and Shawnee Smith will reprise their roles as Mark Hoffman and Amanda Young, respectively. Their characters played pivotal roles in previous Saw films, and their return would add a sense of continuity to the series.
