Sorry Pennywise — the real stars of Andy Muschietti’s It remake were undoubtedly the young Losers Club, from Stranger Things’ Finn Wolfhard to the immediately-engaging Sophia Lillard. With It: Chapter Two following the group as grown-ups, the adult casting has attracted plenty of attention — especially with some A-listers in the mix. Now we’ve got our first look at the adult Losers all together for the first time, sitting at a table read for the sequel.
From left to right, there’s Jessica Chastain who’ll be playing Bev, James McAvoy taking on Bill, Isaiah Mustafa as Mike, Jay Ryan as Ben, James Ransone as Eddie, Bill Hader as Richie, and Andy Bean who’ll play Stanley.
The second chapter of the Stephen King adaptation is set 27 years after the ‘80s portion, with the Losers’ Club drawn back to Derry to face off against their childhood fears — yes, that dancing clown is back at it again. Muschietti is back to direct, with Gary Dauberman once again adapting King’s hefty novel. The film is set for release on 6 September 2019.
