According to new reports, the next film in The Ring franchise, titled Rings, will be a prequel to the 2002 American remake. Rings is expected to explore the origin story of the creepy Samara and the well-known VHS tape. The film’s title also happens to be the name of the short-film that was featured on The Ring Two‘s DVD release. Rings will be directed by F. Javier Gutiérrez (Before the Fall) and produced by Akiva Goldsman, with Matilda Lutz starring in the film.

The Ring is based on the 1998 Japanese horror-film Ringu. For all those who are unaware, The Ring franchise tells the story of a horrific videotape that contains flashes on nightmarish images. Whoever views the videotape will receive a mysterious and flat out creepy phone call that more or less predicts the viewers death, which will occur in seven days. It may sound a tad bit silly but there’s no way you’d want a creepy gal like Samara coming after you.
