Paramount Pictures still plans to go back to the well for another "Ring" movie; it'll just arrive a little later.

Variety reports the studio has abruptly moved the release of "Rings," the third film in the supernatural horror series, from Nov. 13 to sometime next year.

Directed by F. Javier Gutierrez ("Before the Fall"), the first installment of the franchise since 2005's "The Ring Two" stars Johnny Galecki ("The Big Bang Theory") and newcomers Matilda Lutz and Alex Roe. Set 13 years after the events of 2002's "The Ring" -- a remake of the 1998 Japanese thriller "Ring" -- the film will continue the story of the cursed video tape.

The date change comes as Paramount shifts Adam McKay's financial drama "The Big Short" and Charlie Kaufman’s stop-motion animated film “Anomalisa” to December.
