Naomi Watts recently signed on board DreamWorks prepping remake of the Japanese horror film, THE RING (RINGU). Now, she's been talking about the film to come.
While talking to Empire Online, the MULHOLLAND DRIVE actress spoke of the film, saying, "It's horrific, it's truly disturbing and I'm really excited about it."
Regarding the film's story, focusing on a video tape that curses its watcher to die within a week after viewing, Watts adds, "It's full of esoteric, weird things and you can't quite make out what it is or what it means. It looks like a bad student film, but when you've finished watching it, the phone rings and you're told you have seven days to live. My character sees it and a family member is caught up in it and killed so she has to work out how to stop it, and also save herself. She's a really smart, survivor chick."
Gore Verbinski is helming the project, which will also star Daveigh Chase (DONNIE DARKO).
