‘IT: Chapter Two’ Is Over Two Hours Long

Director Andy Muschietti‘s IT: Chapter Two will soon be arriving in theaters, but there’s something you should know, the movie is long. When I say long, I mean 2 hours and 45 minutes. That’s right, 2 hours and 45 minutes, which is unheard of for a horror movie (not that we’re complaining). The movie picks up twenty-seven years after the Losers Club faced Pennywise. The kids are now grown up and have moved on their lives, at least they thought they had. After receiving a devastating hone call the club returns home and must fight the creature once again. Written by Gary Dauberman, the film stars Jessica Chastain as Beverly Marsh, Bill Hader as Richie, James McAvoy as Bill, James Ransone as Eddie, Andy Bean as Stanley, Isaiah Mustafa as Mike and Jay Ryan as Ben. Xavier Dolan is Adrian Mellon, Teach Grant as bully Henry Bowers, with Will Beinbrink as Tom Rogan, and Jess Weixler as Bill’s wife. Bill
