We already broke the news that Rings was on the move. Now, Paramount Pictures has locked in April 1, 2016 as a new date. This is great because it’s not a drastic shift and shows that the filmmakers are just tightening the screws. I’m personally extremely excited about this one…
Rings is the latest sequel to The Ring, the U.S. remake of Hideo Nakata’s J-horror Ringu.
Johnny Galecki, best known as Leonard in “The Big Bang Theory,” stars in Rings.
Galecki will play Gabriel, a handsome, pleasure-seeking professor who mentors and helps boyfriend and girlfriend duo, Holt (Alex Roe) and Julia (Matilda Lutz). Scream 4‘s Aimee Teegarden rounds out the main cast.
It’s a direct sequel to The Ring 2, although there were plans on having it be part prequel, which didn’t come into fruition when the filmmakers were allegedly unable to lock down original star Naomi Watts.
The original cursed video will once again play as a device to Samara’s curse.
