Sadako Yamamura, the restless revenant from the Ringu / The Ring film series, is up to her old tricks in a new format, because according to a new trailer published for the upcoming Sadako live-action horror film, it appears that the curse will be spreading through Youtube this time.
In Sadako, Elaiza Ikeda plays Mayu, a psychologist charged with analyzing a mysterious girl (played by Himeka Himejima) who is kept in a hospital under police custody. The girl seems to be suffering from amnesia, and inexplicable events seem to follow in her wake. At the same time, Mayu's younger brother, Kazuma (played by Hiroya Shimizu), is a professional Youtuber who seeks to drum up more views by investigating a burned down site where 5 people died.
Based on the 2013 novel Tide by Koji Suzuki, Sadako is directed by Hideo Nakata and features a screenplay written by Noriaki Sugihara. The film stars Elaiza Ikeda, Takashi Tsukamoto, Hiroya Shimizu, Himeka Himejima, Ren Kiriyama, and Rie Tomosaka. Sadako hits theaters in Japan on May 24, 2019.
