IT became the highest grossing horror movie of all-time, crossing the $700 million barrier in the box office. With 1999's The Sixth Sense coming in second place with $672.8 million.
So it's no surprise that a second chapter of the 2017 horror movie is in high demand. The release date has already been set for September 6th...2019.
This time the movie will take place 27 years after the first, when the children of Derry, Maine are all grown up. The first installment followed the first half of Stephen King's novel of the same name, whilst the second will follow the latter half. The characters return to the town as adults, as Pennywise also causes terror again.
Rumours have been swirling for a while but Variety have now confirmed the news that Jessica Chastain is in talks to appear in the sequel as the adult version of Beverley.
Yessssss!!!!!!! She would be perfect!!!!
The young actress looks more like Amy Adams, but @jes_chastain is My future wife so I'm okay with this.
Should have been Amy Adams.
It's strange how divided we were between her and Amy Adams, yet both women do not resemble each other that much. But anyway, it's a choice between two of the finest film actresses alive, a triumph for the horror genre.
Either way, we're excited about the news!
