The film will be executive produced by Chris Rock, long-time Saw executive producer Daniel Heffner and the original creators of Saw, James Wan and Leigh Whannell.
The screenplay is based on a story conceived by Rock and written by Pete Goldfinger and Josh Stolberg (Jigsaw).
Rock plays a police detective investigating a series of grizzly crimes, with Jackson playing his father.
Chris and I bonded almost immediately and he was an awesome collaborator on the process.”
