UPDATING THIS THREAD: TO SUM IT UP, YEAP! THERE'S GOING TO BE AN 8TH!

Lionsgate Already Planning "Saw 8"

The cast and crew are treating "Saw 3D," the seventh installment, as the final film in the popular "Saw" series. But actress Betsy Russell (plays Jigsaw's ex-wife Jill) just revealed to NY Post that filmmakers are not ready to end the franchise.

"Before we thought it was ending [with 'Saw 7'], the writers came up with an unbelievable idea [for 'Saw 8']," she said. "It's an amazing story that I would love to see."

Russell wouldn't talk much about the eigth film, but said if "Saw 3D" does well in theaters, Lionsgate will immediately greenlight another installment.

She added: "We want to end near the top, with our integrity in tact and not letting the characters die a slow death, so to speak. But I believe in my heart that someday, somehow, ['Saw 8'] will happen."
