Chris Rock hunts the new Jigsaw killer in trailer for Spiral: From the Book of Saw

March 30, 2021 by EJ Moreno

Chris Rock is looking to resurrect the Saw franchise with one of the original directors. Darren Lynn Bousman, director of Saw 2, Saw 3, and Saw 4, returns to the director’s chair in what promises to be another gory and wild murder mystery.

In the new trailer for Spiral: From the Book of Saw, we see Rock playing a cop investigating a series of murders that may have a connection to the original killings done by Jigsaw. Check out the trailer here…

A criminal mastermind unleashes a twisted form of justice in Spiral, the terrifying new chapter from the book of Saw. Working in the shadow of his father, an esteemed police veteran (Samuel L. Jackson), brash Detective Ezekiel “Zeke” Banks (Chris Rock) and his rookie partner (Max Minghella) take charge of a grisly investigation into murders that are eerily reminiscent of the city’s gruesome past. Unwittingly entrapped in a deepening mystery, Zeke finds himself at the center of the killer’s morbid game.

Spiral stars Chris Rock, Max Minghella, Marisol Nichols, and Samuel L. Jackson and is produced by the original Saw team of Mark Burg and Oren Koules. The film is directed by Darren Lynn Bousman and written by Josh Stolberg & Pete Goldfinger.
