Andy Bean and ‘Sinister’ James Ransone Confirmed for ‘It: Chapter 2’

It: Chapter 2

Sinister and Tangerine star James Ransone is just the latest name confirmed for It: Chapter Two alongside Jessica Chastain as adult Beverly Marsh–formerly played by Sophia Lillis. Ransone is set to play the adult version of Eddie Kaspbrak, previously played by Jack Dylan Grazer in the original 2017 film.

Grazer’s performance was hailed by fans of the first film as he played “The Loser’s Club” resident hypochondriac brilliantly. Not only is Ransone incredibly talented, but the resemblance between the two actors is genuinely uncanny.

Ransone announced his role in a since-deleted tweet on Tuesday. The internet, understandably, could not honor his humble request to keep the news quiet. Sorry, James.

James McAvoy and Bill Hader are also in negotiations to join the cast. McAvoy would star as adult Bill Denbrough — the unofficial leader of the Losers Club — who was wonderfully played by Jaeden Lieberher in the first film.

Hader would star as adult Richie Tozier. Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things) portrayed the younger version of the role in Andy Muschietti’s first chapter. We can’t imagine a better fit for those roles – especially the always hilarious Bill Hader as the adult version of the young, foulmouthed Richie.

Additionally, in a recent announcement from Variety, Andy Bean has been cast as the adult Stanley Uris. Bean is perhaps best known for his roles in Power, Divergent: Allegiant, and Here and Now. Again, it looks like the film’s casting director has a keen eye for finding talented adults who sincerely look like older versions of their child counterparts.

Bill Skarsgård will reprise his iconic role as Pennywise the shape-shifting clown. Director Andy Muschietti recently teased the audience of CinemaCon at Caesar’s Palace about the tone of his upcoming feature:

“It: Chapter Two” will be even more scary than last year’s horror blockbuster, bring your adult diapers.”

Production for the concluding chapter is expected to begin later this summer, but we’re still waiting on casting information for fellow Losers Mike Hanlon and Ben Hanscom, as well as the villainous Henry Bowers.

Warner Bros. is set to release It: Chapter Two on September 6th, 2019.

Published

on

Eli Roth (Cabin Fever) and Crypt TV are knocking it out of the park with their new VR show, The Faceless Lady. For those unaware, this is the first fully scripted VR horror show on the market.

Even for masters of horror like Eli Roth and Crypt TV, this is a monumental undertaking. However, if I trust anyone to change the way that we experience horror, it would be these two legends.

The Faceless Lady

Ripped from the pages of Irish folklore, The Faceless Lady tells the story of a tragic spirit cursed to wander the halls of her castle for all of eternity. However, when three young couples are invited to the castle for a series of games, their fates may soon change.

So far, the story has provided horror fans with a gripping game of life or death that doesn’t look as if it will slow down in episode five. Luckily, we have an exclusive clip that may be able to satiate your appetites until the new premiere.

Airing on 4/25 at 5pmPT/8pmET, episode five follows our final three contestants in this wicked game. As the stakes are raised ever higher, will Ella be able to fully awaken her connection with Lady Margaret?

‘Blink Twice’ Trailer Presents a Thrilling Mystery in Paradise

Published

on

A new trailer for the movie formerly known as Pussy Island just dropped and it has us intrigued. Now with the more restrained title, Blink Twice, this  Zoë Kravitz-directed black comedy is set to land in theaters on August 23.

The film is packed with stars including Channing Tatum, Naomi Ackie, Alia Shawkat, Simon Rex, Adria Arjona, Haley Joel Osment, Christian Slater, Kyle MacLachlan, and Geena Davis.

The trailer feels like a Benoit Blanc mystery; people are invited to a secluded location and disappear one by one, leaving one guest to figure out what is going on.

In the film, a billionaire named Slater King (Channing Tatum) invites a waitress named Frida (Naomi Ackie) to his private island, “It’s paradise. Wild nights blend into sun-soaked days and everyone’s having a great time. No one wants this trip to end, but as strange things start to happen, Frida begins to question her reality. There is something wrong with this place. She’ll have to uncover the truth if she wants to make it out of this party alive.”
