The adult members of The Losers Club – Bill (McAvoy), Beverly (Chastain), Richie (Hader), Ben (Ryan), Eddie (Ransone), Mike (Mustafa) and Stanley (Bean) – reunite after many years apart to get rid of It once and for all…
IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?
The second half of Stephen King’s epic horror novel is adapted into a movie that’s just as epic and scary, especially with plenty more of Bill Skarsgård’s Pennywise to experience.
