Stephen King Tweet Suggests Trailer for IT: CHAPTER TWO is Coming Soon

Stephen King It Pennywise

2017 was a huge year for Stephen King movies, exemplified by the trifecta that was IT, Gerald’s Game, and 1922. While King Fever cooled a bit in 2018, expect it to reach epidemic proportions in 2019 with Pet Sematary arriving in April and IT: Chapter Two hitting theaters in September. While we’ve already gotten our first trailer for Pet Sematary, we haven’t seen any official promotional footage from IT: Chapter Two, which just wrapped principal photography in Toronto last October.

While it might be naïve to expect to see a trailer for IT: Chapter Two anytime soon, a late afternoon tweet by Stephen King yesterday has fans speculating that something big may be coming down the pike. Whatever the case, he’s gotten legions of followers riled up with just five words: “IT CHAPTER 2 is coming.”

It would be cruel for The King of Horror to toy with our emotions, but then again, it’s kind of what he does for a living! Whatever King’s tweet means, we’ll be keeping our ears to the ground in order to bring you all IT: Chapter Two-related news as details emerge. Stay tuned! In the meantime, revisit the synopsis and trailer for 2017’s IT below.

Synopsis:
Seven young outcasts in Derry, Maine, are about to face their worst nightmare — an ancient, shape-shifting evil that emerges from the sewer every 27 years to prey on the town’s children. Banding together over the course of one horrifying summer, the friends must overcome their own personal fears to battle the murderous, bloodthirsty clown known as Pennywise.

It and IT: Chapter Two are directed by Andy Muschietti from scripts penned by Gary Dauberman; the films stars Bill Skarsgård, Jaeden Lieberher, and Finn Wolfhard.
