Paramount has just shared the opening sequence from Rings with us in support of the film’s upcoming release. And we have it available for you to check it out after the break! Check it out in the player below and let us know what you think!
The opening scene sees two perfect strangers on a plan realizing that they have both seen Samara’s tape. Both become increasingly paranoid as strange phenomena occurs as they get closer to their destination.
The picture stars Vincent D’Onofrio (Sinister) and Johnny Galecki (I Know What You Did Last Summer). And Bonnie Morgan will reprise her role as Samara. Morgan first appeared as the character in an uncredited appearance in The Ring 2. The actress and contortionist has also featured in The Devil Inside, The Last Witch Hunter, and Piranha 3D.
Rings will be released in theaters February 3rd, 2017. As we previously reported, Javier Gutiérrez, the director of the upcoming installment, has promised that his new film will absolutely be a sequel and not a prequel to The Ring.
Akiva Goldsman, David Loucka and Jacob Aaron Estes co-penned the script, which is based on a novel by Koji Suzuki.
“A new chapter in the beloved Ring horror franchise. A young woman becomes worried about her boyfriend when he explores a dark subculture surrounding a mysterious videotape said to kill the watcher seven days after he has viewed it. She sacrifices herself to save her boyfriend and in doing so makes a horrifying discovery: there is a “movie within the movie” that no one has ever seen before…”
