Saw XI Canceled After Prolonged Producer Disputes

The future of the Saw franchise remains uncertain as unresolved conflicts between producers and Lionsgate halt progress on the planned sequel.

Saw XI, originally announced in late 2023, has been officially canceled after over a year of stalled progress due to internal producer disputes.
The planned sequel had a finished script and was set to bring back key franchise figures, including director Kevin Greutert and actor Tobin Bell.
The cancellation follows the critical and financial success of Saw X, which grossed $125 million globally on a $13 million budget in 2023.
Reports suggest that the franchise could potentially be rebooted if the rights are sold to another studio, though no concrete plans have been announced.
Lionsgate has not issued an official statement on the cancellation, leaving fans and industry insiders speculating about the franchise's next steps.
