Nichols said she was surprised to discover how timely Spiral was when she saw the film recently. "It was critical for us that the hero also be a cop, as well, and come from the same department ," Bousman said. For all the cops the killer considers guilty, Bousman said Banks is not one of them. "Give them the credit for being so ahead of the curve."īousman said that Spiral also balances its view of the police. "It's such a tribute to all of the Saw mythology that they've always had this exploration of morality in relation to cops and detectives," Minghella said. Danny Glover, Donnie Wahlberg, Dina Meyer, Lyriq Bent, Costas Mandylor and Scott Patterson all played police officers in the Saw franchise, and many fell into John Kramer's traps.

Spiral is also not the first Saw movie to deal with the police, Minghella said. "Sadly, this has been in the news for many years, long before George Floyd," Bousman said.
Bousman said they did not set out to make a political film, but that police violence has been relevant for some time. While awaiting their new release date, Bousman said Rock texted the 42-year-old director when the Breonna Taylor and George Floyd cases were in the news. Spiral was slated for release in May 2020, but was postponed for a year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The makers of Spiral, including screenwriters Josh Stolberg and Pete Goldfinger, had the idea to apply the Saw theme to corrupt cops in 2019. " were able to thread the balance between something old and something new." "It obviously has the horror elements that you want from a Saw film," Minghella said. However, Minghella said the focus on police made him feel like he was in a cop movie rather than a horror film. Spiral has elaborate death traps to maintain continuity with the Saw films. The killer of Spiral targets police officers who have falsified evidence or committed unjustified violence. In the Saw movies, Kramer forced victims to atone for their sins by solving his gruesome traps, or die trying. "It also helps build the relationship between the characters to make it feel real."
"Almost all of the dialogue in the car is improvised," Minghella said. Other scenes allowed the 35-year-old Minghella and 56-year-old Rock to improvise Banks and Schenk bonding. Minghella said that in some scenes in Spiral, they could not stray from the script because the mystery depended on exact dialogue. "There were at least 10 other iterations of punchlines that he put in there," Nichols said. Nichols said Rock improvised a different line in every take. The 47-year-old Nichols experienced one of Rock's added jokes when he complained, "What am I, a Jamaican nanny?" when Garza assigned him a new partner. Jackson plays Marcus, Garza's predecessor in the department. Nichols plays Banks' captain, Angie Garza, who assigns Banks a new partner, William Schenk (Minghella).
