It Chapter Two: How Does the Sequel's Cast Compare to the Originals? 10 IMAGES

Director Andy Muschietti, who helmed the first film , revealed during a recent interview with Total Film (via Syfy ) that King reached out to him following the success of the original adaptation, which was praised by the horror maestro."It was absolutely huge," Muschietti said. "For me, it would be unthinkable when I was 12 or 13."Apparently, the Pennywise creator offered to work with the sibling team and share some feedback on the sequel, which they both humbly accepted. King read the first draft of the script for the new film, made a few notes, and then requested the addition of "one all-new scene."While everything that we have seen so far seems to suggest that the film's creative team have tried to remain faithful to King's literary vision, this latest development proposes a slight deviation away from the source material to add an unexpected twist in the forthcoming chapter.This new scene surely won't have been one that hit the cutting room floor , though producer Barbara Muschietti previously revealed that there were "some amazing scenes that didn’t make it into the movie ." IT: Chapter Two floats into theaters on September 6th, but if you can't wait until then, you might want to consider attending a limited-time screening of IT this month to catch a further glimpse of some extended footage from the sequel.
