Chapter Two picks up 27 years later and sees the return of the Losers as adults to their New England hometown to once against face their deadly foe.
Warner Bros. has released a 3-minute featurette for Chapter Two called “Coming Home,” where author Stephen King, directorAndy Muschietti, and the adult cast members talk about the upcoming sequel and what it means for the friends to come home under these terrible circumstances. Watch the featurette here below.
IT Chapter One is currently available on Blu-ray, DVD, 4K Ultra HD, and Digital, but will be making a 2-night return to select theaters on August 3 and August 6, with these limited screenings to include 8 minutes of new footage from the upcoming sequel.
Evil resurfaces in Derry as director Andy Muschietti reunites the Losers Club””young and adult””in a return to where it all began with “It Chapter Two.”
