Not a big fan of the series but I know there are some fans on the board...
The rumor mill churns out the latest buzz on the sequel.

February 18, 2009 - Will Cary Elwes reprise his role as Dr. Lawrence Gordon from the first Saw film for Saw VI? Rumor has it he might.
Bloody Disgusting claims to have heard that Dr. Gordon will be back for Saw VI. A plot synopsis for the forthcoming Xbox 360 title Saw: The Videogame, which will tie into the sixth film's release, suggests as much:
"One man. One plan. One foot. Yes, the doctor is in! With a strange twist of fate and a revengeful plot, get ready for the most anticipated event of Saw. Face your fears at his operating table. Know that no one is safe from his sickness. Chills and screams are his true pleasure. Oh...and Blood? You'll be drenched in it."
Saw fans will recall that Dr. Gordon diagnosed John "Jigsaw" Kramer with cancer, and later had to amputate his own leg to escape from Jigsaw's trap. The ultimate fate of Gordon, however, has remained a matter of heated debate among fans.
A more obvious reason for why Gordon has never reappeared in the series is the fact that Cary Elwes sued his own management firm, which also produced Saw, in 2005 for alleged breach of contract and unjust enrichment. Is it possible that Elwes and the producers have kissed and made up?
Saw VI is slated for an October 23rd release.
