The Ring Two Wallpaper

Academy Award® nominee Naomi Watts ("21 Grams") reprises the role of investigative reporter Rachel Keller in "The Ring Two," the sequel to the 2002 horror hit "The Ring." Hideo Nakata, the director of the original Japanese blockbuster "Ringu" upon which the "The Ring" was based, directed "The Ring Two," which marks his American film debut.

The story picks up six months after the horrifying events that terrorized Rachel Keller and her son Aidan (David Dorfman) in Seattle. To escape her haunting memories, Rachel takes Aidan and moves to the small coastal community of Astoria, Oregon, to start fresh. However, Rachel's resolve quickly turns to dread when evidence at a local crime scene-including an unmarked videotape-seems eerily familiar. Rachel realizes that the vengeful Samara is back and more determined than ever to continue her relentless cycle of terror and death.

"The Ring Two" is produced by Walter F. Parkes and Laurie MacDonald, who also produced "The Ring." Also returning from "The Ring" is screenwriter Ehren Kruger. The executive producers are Mike Macari, Roy Lee, Neil Machlis and Michele Weisler.

Joining Naomi Watts and David Dorfman in the cast are Simon Baker (TV's "The Guardian"), Elizabeth Perkins ("Speak") and Academy Award® winner Sissy Spacek ("Coal Miner's Daughter," "Carrie").

The behind-the-scenes team includes director of photography Gabriel Beristain ("Blade II," "Dolores Claiborne"), production designer Jim Bissell ("Jumanji," "E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial"), costume designer Wendy Chuck ("About Schmidt," "Bad Santa"), editor Michael Knue ("Spawn," "The Crow: City of Angels"), special effects coordinator Peter Chesney ("Men in Black," "The Mothman Prophecies"), visual effects supervisor Betsy Paterson ("Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed"), and six time Oscar®-winning special makeup effects designer Rick Baker ("Planet of the Apes," "Men in Black").
