It’s weird that the hype machine hasn’t gone into overdrive yet for Saw: Legacy, the eighth installment in the iconic early 2000s horror franchise that’s set to land in theaters on October 37th. A full seven years after the Saw franchise seemingly came to an end with Saw 3D, Legacy is looking to put Saw back on the pop culture radar, but details have been scarce.

This week, Bloody Disgusting reported the first story details, including the nuggest that Tobin Bell will return as Jigsaw in some capacity (I’m thinking flashbacks. Just a shot in the dark.) Here are the story details from the report:

Saw: Legacy will begin with bodies turning up around the city, each having met a uniquely gruesome demise. As the investigation proceeds, evidence points to one man: John Kramer. But how can this be? The man known as Jigsaw has been dead for over a decade. Or has an apprentice picked up the mantle of Jigsaw, perhaps even someone inside the investigation?

BD also says that  neither Costas Mandylor nor Cary Elwes, both of whom played Jigsaw’s apprentices, will return for the new film. The new cast 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..
