It Chapter 2 trailer soon after NEW teaser poster? Pennywise is BACK

Last year Stephen King’s IT hit cinemas as audiences flocked to see Pennywise the Clown terrorise a bunch of 80s kids.

The horror film was a box office smash, topping The Exorcist as the highest-grossing horror of all time.

A modest budget of $35 million managed to rake in a whopping $700 million worldwide.

So it’s not surprising that a sequel was quickly greenlit.

Of course, the first IT movie was only half the novel, with the second part being set 27 years later.

In the original story, the childhood part takes place in the 1950s, before bringing the action into present-day 1980s.

However, the films have gone for that Stranger Things vibe, setting the coming of age section in the 80s.

And next year It Chapter 2 will be set in our present, seeing all the kids grown up.

It Chapter 2 has a star-studded cast including Jessica Chastain as Beverly, alongside James McAvoy and Bill Hader.

And now the first teaser poster for the sequel has landed to coincide with Halloween.

Of course being a teaser poster it doesn’t really do much except, well, tease the film with its title.

Nevertheless, when a poster for a new movie is launched that’s usually a sign that the first trailer is around the corner.

Last year the first IT movie trailer launched in March and was viewed a record-breaking 197 million in its first 24 hours.

However, come November Avenger Infinity War topped it with 230 million.

No doubt both films’ sequels will see their first trailers challenge these figures.

IT Chapter 2 will be released in cinemas on September 6, 2019.
