The film is set to be released on October 24, 2008,[2] following the tradition of the Saw films, being released every year on the Friday before Halloween.

Production
Development
Saw V is being written by Patrick Melton and Marcus Dunstan,[4] and the film went into production after Christmas 2007.[5] Filming began on March 17 in Toronto[1], and principal photography concluded on April 28. Saw V finished filming by May 2nd and had started post-production.[6][1]
Plot details
The plot details have not yet been revealed, although in an interview with IGN, Patrick Melton revealed that Saw V will explain what happened to Corbett, the daughter of Lynn Denlon and Jeff Reinhart, following the conclusion of Saw III that left her in danger.[7] An interview with Tobin Bell revealed that the origins of Billy the puppet and his red tricycle would be further explained after having the story's roots planted in Saw IV.[8] Also, in an interview on June 13, 2007, Tobin Bell teased that he would not be surprised if the character of Cecil made a reappearance, and that the pieces of flesh taken from the victims in the form of a jigsaw puzzle might be explained.[9]
According to director David Hackl, one trap can potentially kill the actor meant to be placed in it, and so paramedics will be standing by while filming; Hackl joked that the trap would truly test the actor, just like Jigsaw tests his victims.[10]
In the Saw IV DVD commentary, Darren Lynn Bousman stated that the glass box trap,[11] which was originally planned to be used in Saw IV, will be further explored in Saw V.[12] The glass trap was only shown, not used, in the final cut of Saw IV.
Lionsgate recently released a brief plot synopsis for Saw V that "Hoffman is seemingly the last person alive to carry on the Jigsaw legacy. But when his secret is threatened, Hoffman must go on the hunt to eliminate all loose ends."[13]
According producer, a theme of the film will be teamwork and it will thematically be like the original Saw [14]
In an interview discussing the trap of Saw V, David Hackl revealed that Scott Patterson's character, Agent Strahm, would be placed in a trap that Hackl called 'the most dangerous' and 'elegant in its simplicity'.[15]
