In the film, Special Forces commando Parker (Jessica Alba) is on active duty overseas when she gets called back to her hometown with the tragic news that her father has suddenly died.
Now the owner of the family bar, Parker reconnects with her former boyfriend-turned-sheriff Jesse (Mark Webber), his hot-tempered brother Elvis (Jake Weary), and their powerful father Senator Swann (Anthony Michael Hall) as she looks to understand what actually happened to her dad.
Parker’s search for answers quickly goes south, and she soon finds herself at odds with a violent gang running rampant in her hometown.
Unsure of who she can truly trust, Parker draws on her commando training and proves herself a force to be reckoned with as she hunts down the truth and attempts...

Earlier this month, we learned that Game of Thrones cast members Sophie Turner and Kit Harington will be reuniting for writer/director Natasha Kermani’s Gothic horror film The Dreadful… and close on the heels of that announcement comes the news that Turner has also signed on to star in a psychological thriller called Trust, which is coming our way from Twisted Pictures, the production company behind the Saw franchise.
Twisted Pictures has secured a multi-picture deal with Republic Pictures, with Republic Pictures acquiring the worldwide rights to Trust. As The Hollywood Reporter notes, “The Paramount Global housed Republic Pictures was revived in 2023 as an acquisitions only label, and has a slate that includes Samara Weaving starrer Azreal and Jon Voight action film The Painter.” The Republic Pictures name goes back to 1935 and the days when the company was a standalone studio that specialized in serials, Westerns, and B-movies.

Jigsaw lives! So do all of his deadly puzzle traps in the first official trailer for “Saw X.” Lionsgate pulled the curtain back on the new installment in the horror series at Midsummer Screen Festival on Saturday evening.
While the plot for the 10th entry in the “Saw” franchise has been kept under wraps, the project has long teased the return of Tobin Bell as the series killer kidnapper Jigsaw. The actor originated the role in 2004’s “Saw” but died at the end of “Saw 3.” Even so, the character was a driving creative force and Bell signed on for several sequels, appearing in flashbacks as the series contorted itself into one of the most labyrinthine chronologies in modern franchise filmmaking.
“Saw X” arrives only two years after the series’ previous installment, “Spiral: From the Book of Saw.” Led by Chris Rock, that entry bore few connections to the existing series.

Following a several year break, the "Saw" franchise looks to be returning with the eighth installment "Saw Legacy". First reported back in 2013, and bringing onboard writers Josh Stolberg and Peter Goldfinger last year, it now looks like production on the film is getting ready.
iatse873, the official site for a film and TV union in Toronto, has revealed that filming on a project dubbed "Legacy" is set to take place between September 21st and October 21st in the city.
At the same time it lists Dan Heffner and Oren Kroules as producers, the pair having been on the series since the beginning, and links back to a Saw imdb page. No director or cast members are currently attached to the project.
Kroules previously teased that big announcements could come around the time of Comic-Con 2016 - an event just two weeks away. Could we be getting a cast/director reveal at that time?...

Earlier this year it was reported that Lionsgate might be developing an eighth Saw film called Saw: Legacy. This was a very lucrative horror franchise for the studio. It was so lucrative that not even the last film in the franchise, Saw 3D: The Final Chapter, would be the last film. Lionsgate is hellbent on keeping this franchise alive!
The studio hired writers Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger to draft a script for the new film. These are the writers behind films such as Sorority Row and Piranha 3D. We haven't heard much about the film project since that happened, and I figured it might have been scrapped. But today, thanks to Bloody-Disgusting, we've learned that film is gearing up to start shooting this September.
The production details were discovered on a listing at IATSE873, which is a site that supports a union of stage, theater, and movie employees/operators.

Executive producing for Lionsgate are president of acquisitions and co-productions Peter Block and senior vp acquisitions Jason Constantine. Key contributors to the first three films returning include editor Kevin Greutert, director of photography David Armstrong and production designer David Hackl.

The film is slated for worldwide release on Oct. 26. The "Saw" series has thus far grossed more than $400 million worldwide.
