Warner Bros. Pictures has released a second official teaser for Stephen King’s It remake, during which Pennywise (Bill Skarsgård) emerges from the shadows. Directed by Andrés Muschietti, the 2017 version of the classic horror tale will be released in theatres worldwide on September 8.
In the brand new clip, which debuted during last night’s MTV Movie & TV Awards, the notoriously creepy clown shows he isn’t scared to come out of hiding. The film, which is a recreation of the author’s hit original 1990 feature, employs new technology to give a breath of fresh air – or sheer terror in this case – to the fabled horror story. Presented by New Line Cinema, the brand new film was adapted by Chase Palmer, Cary Fukunaga and Gary Dauberman and executive produced by Marty P. Ewing, Doug Davison and Jon Silk.
