Fans are eagerly waiting for the sequel to one of the best supernatural horror genre movies, IT. Cheer up, horror movie buffs, IT Chapter 3 is coming soon. If you are one of those who couldn’t wait for the first two releases to hit the theatres, then the third installment will scare you even more. Both IT films are based on the 1986 novel of the same name by Stephen King. Andy Muschietti adapted the novel into a film and released the first part in 2017. The first film covered half the novel, with the remainder being included in the second part, which was released in 2019. Since the novel has been completely adapted into the first two chapters of the film, what is IT chapter 3 story going to be?
IT Chapter 3 Renewal Status
Official Status: Officially not announced (Last Updated: 2024)
No official announcement has been made on the renewal for the next chapter. Some internet theories are suggesting that Chapter 3 may get canceled as the novel is fully adapted. If the story continues, it will completely alter the story of Stephen King.
IT Chapter 3 Release Date
The release date of IT Chapter 3 has not been announced yet. The release of the first two chapters had a gap of two years, while the third chapter has already taken more than two years and production has yet to begin. This wait is going to be very long for the fans.
IT Chapter 3 Plot
IT follows the story of an ancient shape-shifting monster that resurfaces every 27 years from a sewer and hunts children. Seven young friends from Derry must overcome their fears and fight the devil to protect the children of their town. Pennywise, a bloodthirsty clown, scares the children and then feeds on them. The novel describes Pennywise as an alien and identifies him as male. But the film portrays him as a demon who returns every 27 years. He has some supernatural power that keeps him from being noticed by people, making people believe that he is not real but a fantasy.
IT Chapter 3 Cast
If IT Chapter 3 serves as a sequel, there’s a strong chance the original cast will return to reprise their roles. While not confirmed, this remains speculative. If it turns out to be a prequel, the existing cast likely won’t return, as the story takes place long before their characters are born. Bill Skarsgård, who played the role of Pennywise, might return for the prequel.
