    CAST James McAvoy, Jessica Chastain, Bill Hader, Bill Skarsgård, Isaiah Mustafa

    PLOT In 2016, 27 years after terrorising the town of Derry, big-headed clown Pennywise (Skarsgård) is back, a bodycount rising in his wake. Having researched the monster’s history, Mike Hanlon (Mustafa) tracks down the estranged members of The Losers’ Club, getting them to make good on their promise to fight once more.
