Despite quickly greenlighting the sequel, Saw 11‘s release date has been delayed. The next installment in the long-running horror franchise was announced just three months after Saw X became the best-reviewed movie in the series and a strong box office hit, grossing over $111.8 million against its $13 million budget. It was further confirmed that the sequel would see Kevin Greutert return to the director’s chair for his fourth time in the franchise, having previously directed the sixth, seventh and tenth installments and editing all except the ones he directed and the Chris Rock-led Spiral.
