This film originally came from a script by the director Darren Lynn Bousman which was called "The Desperate". After trying for years to get it made but being told repeatedly that it was too violent, a company finally wanted to do it because they suspected Saw - L'enigmista (2004) (which was becoming a hit at Sundance) might be a huge success, and they wanted to capitalize on that success. Some producers even described Bousman's script as "too Saw-ish". Just before he was about to close a deal to make the film, Saw (2004) opened huge at the box office and the next day he received a call, and the producers asked if he could change it to "Saw II". Leigh Whannell (who wrote the first film) was then brought on to help with creating his original idea into a proper sequel to Saw (2004).
