Exclusive Interview – Darren Lynn Bousman dishes on his new film Spiral: From The Book of Saw

May 10, 2021 by EJ Moreno

Director Darren Lynn Bousman speaks to EJ Moreno about his latest Saw entry Spiral…

In a recent interview with EJ Moreno, Spiral: From the Book of Saw director Darren Lynn Bousman offered up a host of memorable quotes.

From his candid feelings on working with Chris Rock to what inspired the making of Spiral, Bousman held nothing back. The filmmaker even dished out an exclusive about the first film that disturbed him as a kid… you’ll never guess what it is!

Watch the interview here, and be sure to follow us on YouTube for more exclusive interviews and videos…

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.

Spiral: From the Book of Saw opens in the US on May 14th and the UK on May 17th.
