Welp, we got some bad information, and director F. Javier Gutierrez took to Twitter to make the correction.

Rings is actually a sequel, not a prequel, to the 2002 The Ring, the remake to the J-horror classic Ringu.

“Hey peeps, #Rings is NOT a prequel, the story takes place 13 years after #TheRing:),” explained Gutierrez.

This is actually good news because I love the idea of an old VHS tape being uncovered and played – and the idea that someone had to go out and find a VHS player is kind of neat. Not to mention, what happens when the tape is digitized and goes viral? There’s a lot of cool stuff that can come of the story taking place 13 years later.

In Rings, Alex Roe plays Matilda Lutz’s boyfriend ‘Holt’, and is said to be one of the cast who watches the legendary tape (see below).

Aviva Goldsman, David Loucka and Jacon Aaron Estes all had a hand in writing the script, which is based on the 1991 novel by Koji Suzuki.

Rings will be inserted into theaters November 13, 2015.
