The official trailer for SAW XI (2025) has been released, promising the same intense horror and psychological torment that fans have come to expect from the franchise. Costas Mandylor returns as Detective Mark Hoffman, now fully in control of Jigsaw’s deadly legacy following John Kramer’s death. Joining the cast is Jenna Ortega, who plays one of Hoffman’s latest victims, and based on the trailer, her journey is set to be a terrifying one.

The trailer opens with a chilling voiceover from Hoffman: “Every choice has a consequence.” We then see Ortega’s character waking up in a dimly lit room, shackled to a chair with a deadly contraption on her arms. The cold, industrial setting recalls the classic Saw atmosphere. As the countdown timer on the trap ticks down, panic sets in, immediately establishing the high-stakes horror that will drive the movie. Hoffman watches her struggle from a monitor, a stark reminder of how ruthless the mastermind behind these traps has become. The trailer hints at a personal connection between Hoffman and Ortega’s character, suggesting she may not just be another random victim. Flashbacks imply that Hoffman may have a specific vendetta against her or might be testing her in a way tied to his own warped sense of justice. Could she be connected to John Kramer’s past, or is she tied to Hoffman’s personal motives?
