IT: CHAPTER 2 - Pennywise Stares A Hole Through Your Soul On Theatrical Poster; New Trailer Tomorrow

We won't be getting a new It: Chapter 2 trailer at Comic-Con, so Warner Bros. is releasing it tomorrow instead! In anticipation, the studio has debuted the first theatrical poster for the horror sequel...

If you were disappointed to hear that Warner Bros. was skipping Hall H this year at SDCC because it meant you wouldn't get to see a new trailer for It: Chapter 2, we have some good news: the studio has revealed that our next look at the highly-anticipated horror sequel will be online tomorrow.

To accompany the announcement, we have the first theatrical one-sheet for the movie, which features sadistic killer clown Pennywise and the tagline, "It Ends."



The first film ended with the Losers' Club vanquishing the demonic creature, but, as anyone who read Stephen King's novel will be aware, that's far from the end of the nightmare.

The teaser was met with something of a mixed response, so let's hope the full trailer does a better job of getting fans hyped for our return to Derry this September.

Be sure to check back tomorrow to find out, and have a look at some recently released stills from EW by clicking on the "view list" button below.

Pennywise is definitely not clowning around in It Chapter Two. “He’s scarier and he’s angrier,” notes BSkarsgård. “There’s a couple of very brutal things in the film.” 
Director Andy Muschietti gathered the young actors who played the Losers in the first film (pictured: Chosen Jacobs, Finn Wolfhard, Jaeden Martell, Sophia Lillis, and Jeremy Ray Taylor) for scenes in It Chapter Two depicting the recovered memories of the adult characters.
All the other members of the Losers’ Club, including Richie (Hader) and Bill (McAvoy), don’t remember the traumatic events of their childhood. “When you leave Derry, something happens where you forget it all,” says McAvoy. “I think it’s like a [power] of Pennywise’s. Because if everybody could remember what he gets up to every 27 years through history, we’d go, ‘Hey, Derry’s really f—ed up, we should do something about that. We should send in the f—ing Army!”
They’re brought together by Mike (played by Mustafa), who is the one member of the Losers’ Club who still lives in Derry and needs the help of his childhood pals for a repeat match against the killer clown. “He’s trying to figure out what the hell’s going on in this town and what he can do to put an end to this cycle,” says Mustafa. “It’s an obsession for him.” 

The Losers’ Club — James McAvoy as Bill Denbrough, James Ransone as Eddie Kaspbrak, Jessica Chastain as Beverly Marsh, Bill Hader as Richie Tozier, Isaiah Mustafa as Mike Hanlon, and Jay Ryan as Ben Hanscom  — reconvenes in Derry 27 years after facing off against Pennywise, who was beaten but not destroyed at the end of 2017’s It.

Pennywise is back to terrify the now grown-up Losers’ Club in in It Chapter Two (out Sept. 6), starring Jessica Chastain, James McAvoy, and Bill Hader, among others. Read the story behind the film in EW’s special Comic-Con issue and keep clicking to check out exclusive images from the much-anticipated horror sequel.

So rare to see a poster this good for a Hollywood film. No floating heads, no overly stuffed design or overload of blue/teal. Even the use of white space is creative.

Lmao!! I wouldn’t be able to hold a straight face in front of Hader. Wonder what he’s saying to make Bill Skarsgaard geek out.

@tmp3 - The first season was good and left you wanting more, but season two was outstanding. I didn't expect to get that good.

I hope in this one they have a flashback scene like in the book where Muke visits the elderly and learns that they knew about "The Clown" that's been at every horrific event but never understood who he was.

@Battabing - With a movie coming out, this was a super "no shit" decision by DC. The cover for their John Carpenter Joker book out this October even looks like Jokin Phoenix's take too:

These are the type of posters that I absolutely adore. Simple, yet gives the audience everything they need to know to buy in.

i'm anxious to see it, but aren't Stephen King novels usually one offs, or stand alone films? i don't remember any Stephen King movies having a sequel

@somejackball - They've divided the plot of It into two films to properly cover it all. Part 1 was the past storyline, Part 2 is the present. We do have a legitimate King sequel coming out with Dr. Sleep, based on King's own sequel to The Shining.
