| I posted this in the SAW thread, but wanted to add it here too...Scott had a few things to say about SAW4...YAY!! We have some NEW news!! 
Quote:
The Saw movies are so tightly structured to set up all their plot twists, it does not seem like there would be any room for improvisation. But actor Scott Patterson, who joins the franchise in Saw IV, gave the filmmakers some of his own material to work with.
"You improvise before the meat of the scene begins and at the end of it," said Patterson. "So if they don't like any of it, [they can delete it]. I didn't mess with the text as written, but in the beginning if they wanted a little preamble and at the end I put a button on it."
Patterson plays an FBI agent on the trail of Jigsaw. After his long stint on television, improvisation was one of the many freedoms he enjoyed on Saw IV. "Coming from a very regimented structured environment that Gilmore Girls was and walking onto that set and just being able to stretch your muscles, it was a great experience."
He had nice things to say about actor Tobin Bell too, revealing just how close his agent gets to Jigsaw. "I had one scene with him. I can't really tell you about it but he's a terrific guy. He's a really dedicated actor and a terrific human being. And a pretty good singer/songwriter."
