Previous plans of carrying the Saw movie franchise until at least Saw 8 could well be scrapped according to Scriptwriter Marcus Dunstan. So as a result Saw 7 would be the last Saw movie:

Well, since Lionsgate has forced Kevin Greutert to leave Paranormal Activity 2 to come back to direct Saw 7, I guess the Saw series has been kind of cursed by some evil demon. So maybe time for the Saw series to come to an end, yep…
:/

There is some confusion right now about what movie Kevin Greutert is going to helm. Paramount announced that Kevin Greutert would direct Paranormal Activity 2. But looks like Lionsgate isn’t much happy with this and they have decided to exercise an option from Kevin Greutert’s previous contract: the director would have to give one more year to Lionsgate to direct Saw 7, which means that David Hackl would have to work on something else… And for sure Kevin Greutert isn’t much happy with Lionsgate exercising the option, and he’s been even voicing his anger on his personal blog:

The movie industry is a real business, so can’t blame Lionsgate for trying to protect the Saw franchise…

What a PR mess!

;-)

Lionsgate has announced the release date of Saw 7: the seventh installment of the Saw movie franchise will hit theaters on October 22, 2010.

The movie Saw 7 will be directed by David Hack based on a script written by Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton. Saw 7 will be the first Saw movie in 3D.

Lionsgate has decided to go 3D for the movie SAW VII. The third dimension will add a new twist to Jigsaw’s legacy. It takes longer to prepare the production of a 3D movie. This may explain why David Hackl is back to direct Saw 7 instead of Director Kevin Greutert who’s been helming Saw 6: just conflicting schedules, with Kevin Greutert still working on Saw 6.

Saw VII Movie in 3D

Scriptwriters Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton are in charge of writing the seventh Saw movie. And I guess they will swiftly find a way to integrate 3D into the realm of Jigsaw’s traps for the movie Saw VII.
:)

It’s been announced, via Variety, that Director David Hackl (who started off as a production designer for Saw 2, Saw 3 and Saw 4, before directing Saw 5) will return for Saw 7.

Saw 7 David Hackl

Not real clue why Lionsgate isn’t keeping Kevin Greutert (who’s directing Saw 6). But David Hackl did bring us a hit with Saw 5. So I won’t comlain about him coming back to helm the movie Saw 7.

By the way, Saw VII will start production in January 2010 for a release in October 2010.
:)

It has been confirmed that Scriptwriters Marcus Dunstan and Patrick Melton will pen the screenplay of the movie Saw 7. So we may expect the same kind o twisted traps as in the previous Saw movies. And because the legend never dies, Actor Tobin Bell is back too, as the insane Jigsaw, he will be appear through flashbacks I suppose (actually Tobin Bell said he’ll keep his role till at least the movie Saw 8).

The director of Saw 7 hasn’t been announced, but we may fairly bet that it will be Editor-turned-Director Kevin Greutert (who directed the yet-to-be-released Saw 6 movie). But he may have to share the helm with Scriptwriter Marcus Dunstan, who made his directorial debut this year with The Collector. Update: David hackl is back to direct Saw VII

Regarding the release date of Saw 7: nothing official yet, Lionsgate will probably respect the tradition and release Saw 7 in October 2010.

Any suggestion to Marcus Dunstan Patrick Melton? What do you want to see in the movie Saw VII?
