John Kramer who is better known as Jigsaw. For his portrayal of a man dying from cancer and driven to enlist his victims into twisted games, Bell has won accolades and is widely regarded as an iconic of modern horror movies.
After appearing in eight installments of the Saw series, many fans have been wondering if Bell will have some involvement in Samuel L. Jackson in a leading role. This has led to speculation about whether or not Bell’s infamous man will factor into the narrative at all.
In an interview with Saw has garnered notoriously divisive reactions over the years, but there was an initial appeal to the series partly because of the fact that Jigsaw was introduced to audiences as a complex persona.
Spiral was initially scheduled to be released in May of this year. Because of the fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic, the movie is now slated to hit theaters in 2021. Details about the narrative have been kept under wraps, but it’s certainly possible that Jigsaw will make an appearance given his central role in the franchise. Whether he’s played by Bell or another actor remains to be seen.
In a sense, Jigsaw has already been portrayed by a number of individuals. In the Saw movies, Kramer has often been seen training others about how to continue the tradition of his sadistic obstacles. While it’s understandable that Spiral aims to bring a new sheen to an aging franchise, it would be difficult to imagine the character of Jigsaw being rebooted without Bell’s familiar presence.
