Meanwhile, the BBFC has confirmed that the film has a running time of 135 minutes, making it just 57 minutes shorter than the 1990 miniseries. The film does of course only adapt the first half of the book, with a second movie set to explore the Losers’ Club’s experience with Pennywise as adults. The second movie is expected to shoot next year.

When children begin to disappear in the town of Derry, Maine, a group of young kids are faced with their biggest fears when they square off against an evil clown named Pennywise, whose history of murder and violence dates back for centuries.

It is set for release on September 8th, 2017, with Andy Muschietti directing Bill Skarsgard (Hemlock Grove) as Pennywise alongside Jaeden Lieberher (St. Vincent), Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things), Jack Dylan Grazer (Tales of Halloween), Wyatt Oleff (Guardians of the Galaxy), Chosen Jacobs (Cops and Robbers), Jeremy Ray Taylor (Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip), Owen Teague (Bloodline), Sophia Lillis (A Midsummer Night’s Dream) and Nicholas Hamilton (Captain Fantastic).

Originally published August 2, 2017. Updated November 30, 2022.
