Samuel L. Jackson in "Spiral: From the Book of Saw"

Lionsgate has unveiled the first footage for Spiral. 

The ninth installment in the Saw franchise is directed by Saw II, II, and IV helmer Darren Lynn Bousman and penned by Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger.

Spiral stars Chris Rock as the lead, with a supporting cast that includes Samuel L. Jackson and Max Minghella.

In Spiral: “Working in the shadow of an esteemed police veteran (Jackson), brash detective Ezekiel ‘Zeke’ Banks (Rock) and his rookie partner (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.”

Spiral will hit theaters May 15th.
