Wide-Spread Incorrect Facts
1. "The Ring" (former working title) is inspired by Richard Wagner's opera "The Ring Cycle" and J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings."
— Obviously not true.

2. "The Ring" (former working title) is based on Richard Wagner's epic four-opera cycle, which itself was based on a Germanic myth that also inspired J.R.R. Tolkien to write The Lord of the Rings." — This is also not true, "The Ring" (former working title) is not based on Richard Wagner's epic four-opera cycle.

Kristanna to star in "The Ring" (former working title)
Kristanna Loken will next star in the fantasy-adventure feature film "The Ring," (former working title) along side Benno Furmann ("The Order") and Alicia Witt ("Two Weeks Notice") in the production of mythic Teuton tale based on the Germanic myth abou the ring of the Nibelungs, which inspired Richard Wagner's opera "The Ring Cycle" as well as J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings."

Based on one of Europe's favourite classic tales, "The Ring" (former working title) will draw from the unanimous appeal of the original saga of Seigfried the dragon- slayer, which inspired J.R.R. Tolkien's THE LORD OF THE RINGS, and Richard Wagner based his opera cycle on.

Kristanna will portray Brunnhild, daughter of the god Odin and she will start shooting Monday, November 17 in Cape Town, South Africa for director Uli Edel and a Diane Duane and Peter Morwood script. The story is of a simple swordsmith's son who repeatedly saves his country, not knowing that he is heir to a throne. Also starring are Julian Sands and Max von Sydow.

Huge Impact at the Terminator 3 US Premiere
Kristanna made a huge impact at the US Premiere of Terminator 3 in Weswood, CA this past Monday. After arriving with her family, Kristanna was greeted by her closest friends who were waiting on the red carpet. The star smartly handled the cheering fans, on-camera interviews, bullish security guards and exasperated paparazi as if she were born for the moment. Once in the art deco movie theater, she sat along side her proud father, right in front of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Schriver. The obligatory after party was peerless in its grandeur, a virtual smorgasbord of audio visual stimuli. Kristanna took the VIP table next to Arnold's and the party revolved around the two movie stars' energy and charisma. Kristanna was only able to stay two hours before she was flown privately to Tokyo for the hugely important Japanese premiere.

No Rest for Kristanna
Just back from a whirlwind trip to NYC for interviews, media and publicity, Kristanna hardly has time to rest. With her family and special friends in town for the premiere of Terminator 3 on Monday, Kristanna is busier than ever. The excitement should steadily build to a climax at the premiere in Hollywood where Kristanna will walk the red carpet. The star won't have much time to schmooz after the film, though; she'll be whisked away to Japan for the soon-to-follow Asia Pacific release of Terminator 3.
