Jigsaw aims to carve up a $20 million box office opening

October 26, 2017 by Samuel Brace

Jigsaw is predicted to bring in a sum of $20 million at its box office opening weekend.

The Saw franchise is back for the first time since Saw 3D in 2010, and the aptly named Jigsaw is hoping to catch horror fans in the Halloween mood upon its release this weekend.

The eighth instalment of the series is expected to bring in between $18 million and $22 million at about 2,800 locations, making it North America’s number one movie.

The seven previous entries in the Saw franchise have collectively earned a sum of $415 million at the domestic box office, with Saw II being the individual highest grosser at $87 million.

The $20 million predicted opening for Jigsaw will see it debut just below Saw 3D ($22 million) and just above the original Saw ($18 million). These numbers are not adjusted for inflation.

Jigsaw has a budget of $10 million and is directed by brothers Michael and Peter Spierig.

“Dead bodies begin to turn up all over the city, each meeting their demise in a variety of grisly ways. All investigations begin to point the finger at deceased killer John Kramer.”

Jigsaw is set for release on October 26th and features a cast that includes Mandela Van Peebles, Hannah Anderson, Laura Vandervoort, Brittany Allen, Callum Keith Rennie, Matt Passmore, Hannah Emily Anderson, Josiah Black, Shaquan Lewis, Michael Bolsvert, and James Gomez.
