A huge hit when it was released alongside the movie in 1991 and eventually going Platinum, the soundtrack for New Jack City saw co-stars Ice-T and Christopher Williams providing tracks along with Keith Sweat, Troop/Levert, Queen Latifah, Color Me Badd and more.

Remixing composer Charlie Clouser’s iconic music from the Saw franchise, 21 Savage gave Saw its first soundtrack rap song with “Spiral”, which accompanied the Chris Rock/Samuel L. Jackson movie that arrived earlier this year.

Spiral took the top spot at the box office with the lowest opening in the Saw series (but none of the others opened during a pandemic) while Those Who Wish Me Dead flopped even by pandemic standards and the other new releases just barely cracked the top 10.

The Saw franchise returns with Chris Rock starring in and executive producing Spiral: From the Book of Saw, where a new serial killer who seems to be taking inspiration from John Kramer is unleashing a new game of deadly traps.

Robert Zemeckis brings a new spin to Roald Dahl’s The Witches later this month on HBO Max, with Anne Hathaway starring as the evil Grand High Witch.

After the truly terrible Jigsaw, Chris Rock stepped up to produce and co-star in a “re-imagining” of the Saw franchise with this summer’s Spiral, which co-stars Samuel L. Jackson.

Fargo returns in April for its fourth season as Chris Rock stars as the head of an African American crime family in 1950s Kansas City.

NBC is officially launching the streaming service Peacock next April, Netflix buys the rights to Seinfeld, some Smallville alums are coming back for Crisis on Infinite Earths, The Fugitive is getting a remake, GLOW gets a final season and more in this week’s News Shotgun.
