It convey office 27 years after the original , as the now - adult are summoned back to Derry to face up Pennywise ( Bill Skarsgård ) once again . However , the nipper are back forIt : Chapter 2 … but it ’s not just so we have an excuse to see them again . These flashback are a secret plan point .
James McAvoy , who plays the grown - up version of Bill ( Georgie ’s older comrade ) , toldEntertainment Weeklythat director Andy Muschietti brought the kids back for a specific purpose . In the novel ( and previous TV celluloid starring Tim Curry ) , all the Losers ’ Club kids who leave Derry finish up forgetting everything about Pennywise . This includesBeverly(Jessica Chastain ) , Richie ( Bill Hader ) , Eddie ( James Ransone ) , Ben ( Jay Ryan ) , and Stanley ( Andy Bean ) . The only one who remember what happened is Mike ( Isaiah Mustafa ) , because he choose to stay behind and become a librarian .
Once the grownup arrive back to Derry in the subsequence , their memories begin to return . And that ’s where the kids do in . accord to McAvoy , Muschietti did n’t want to simply have a caboodle of “ aha ” moments when the grownup start recall their horrid experience .

“ Instead of us just abide around going , ‘ Oh , I commend that time , ’ we get to show it to the interview , ” McAvoy secernate EW . “ Which is great , because that would be rattling lamentable if we had to say adios to that plaster cast that the audience across the Earth settle in sexual love with . And actually , in a unearthly way this film resembles the structure of the al-Qur’an , in that it depart back and forth . ”
This could mean things get a snatch more metaphorical , as memory are n’t exactly the most authentic things and could be opened to handling by Pennywise . And it ’s remove the sequel is going to be more metaphysical than the first one . In a previous interview withYahoo ! , Muschietti mentioned that the sequel was also going to dive into the “ transdimensional ” elements from the Koran — something his premature It film chose not to search .

He added that there will be a “ dialogue between the two timelines , ” meaning there ’s a chance we could also see the 1989 and 2016 worlds collide in more ways than just profit a few recovered remembering .
