Tobin Bell Confirms He Will Be Back For Saw XI

We pretty much knew Tobin Bell would be returning for Saw XI, but the actor has now confirmed it via an interview with the LA Times.

I’m really excited about continuing to develop him… John Kramer is not done. There’s more to learn

Saw X, the last film in the Saw franchise, was set between the events of Saw and Saw II and saw John Kramer (Tobin Bell) targets a group of people who tricked him after exploiting his cancer and it became the highest-rated film in the series earning $111.8 million from a $13 million budget.

Not much else is still known about Saw XI but I will update the page as and when news arrives.

Saw XI Now Releasing in 2025

In December 2024, it was announced that Saw XI would be releasing on September 27th 2024, but unfortunately it has now been announced that the release date has been put back a year for the survival horror franchise to September 26th, 2025.

Not much is still known about the movie though, but Tobin Bell, who plays John Kramer, has been in all the Saw movies except Spiral, so he'll likely be in Saw 11 too. 

Costas Mandylor, who plays Mark Hoffman, the second Jigsaw, made a surprise appearance in Saw X's mid-credits scene, so it is rumored he will probably return as well, as well as Shawnee Smith, who reprised her role in Saw X.

In terms of the story, we can only guess right now, but it has been teased by the producers that it could be focused on Hoffman. Producer Mark Burg had this to say:

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.
