Spiral: From the Book of Saw. In the horror flick, which is the ninth iteration of the
Saw franchise, Rock plays Detective Ezekiel “Zeke” Banks and he’s got quite the actor for a father: Samuel L. Jackson.
“The thing about Sam is I’m a fan more than anything,” Rock tells ESSENCE about working with the veteran actor for the first time. “Sam is like 20 years older than me. I guess, technically, we’re peers, but I look at him like the Mount Rushmore of actors. He’s one of the greatest actors that ever lived. I had so much respect for him it probably took me two days just to loosen up around him where I could be fun and tell jokes and stuff.”
Spiral revives the
Saw franchise this weekend, and the first scene from the film has been released showing off the movie’s initial trap. You can see the clip below, which features a cop investigating a subway tunnel only to fall prey to the new film’s killer.
The film releases on May 14th and stars Chris Rock, Max Minghella, Marisol Nichols, and Samuel L. Jackson. It is described as follows:
A criminal mastermind unleashes a twisted form of justice in
Spiral, the terrifying new chapter from the book of
Saw. Working in the shadow of his father, an esteemed police veteran (Samuel L. Jackson), brash Detective Ezekiel “Zeke” Banks (Chris Rock) and his rookie partner (Max Minghella) take charge of a grisly investigation into murders that are eerily reminiscent of the city’s gruesome past. Unwittingly entrapped in a deepening mystery, Zeke finds himself at the center of the killer’s morbid game.
