Lionsgate Removes 'Saw XI' From Release Schedule, Sets 'The Strangers: Chapter 2' for September 2025
Lionsgate has officially removed 'Saw XI' from its release calendar, originally set for September 26, 2025, amid reports of internal disputes among producers that have stalled production. The film's removal comes as 'The Strangers: Chapter 2' takes its place on the release slate, which continues to move forward despite mixed reviews for its predecessor. Writer Patrick Melton indicated that the delays are due to creative differences and managerial issues, with no updates on the film since May 2024. Despite the uncertainty surrounding 'Saw XI,' Lionsgate reassured fans of the franchise's future, with a statement from the character Billy the Puppet hinting that the game is not over. Meanwhile, 'The Strangers: Chapter 2' aims to deliver a thrilling experience, with director Renny Harlin emphasizing its terrifying nature as it prepares for a Halloween release. The success of the first chapter, which grossed $48 million globally, adds pressure to meet audience expectations for the sequel.
