Read my spoiler-free movie review of  It Chapter 2 (2019).

As established in IT (2017), evil in the shape of a scary-looking clown, Pennywise, likes revisiting the town of Derry, Maine, every 27 years.

Starring James McAvoy, Bill Skarsgård, Javier Botet and Jessica Chastain, all the young members of the ‘Losers Club’ are now grown up and and living far from Derry.

That is until a devastating phone call takes them right back.

What a delightfully creepy trailer!

I’ve mentioned a few times that I like clowns, so I haven’t yet found any of the IT movies especially scary. At least not in a way that’s nightmare-inducing. As such, I’ll be watching director Andy Muschietti’s new film to see if that changes.

I also need to confirm whether the young cast members outshine their adult counterparts, where acting is concerned. My experience as I watched the original 1990 IT film was exactly that, the child performers were better actors.

Bill Hader, Sophia Lillis, Troy James, Jack Dylan Grazer, Finn Wofhard, Jaeden Martell and also star.

IT – Chapter 2 Release Dates: September 6th, 2019 (US & UK)…

Aaron Sorkin, a Hollywood name most film lovers know purely for his great screenwriting abilities has directed an exciting looking drama.

Starring Idris Elba, Jessica Chastain, Michael Cera, and Kevin Costner, Molly’s Game is a true story about an Olympic-class skier who ran the world’s most exclusive high-stakes poker game and became an FBI target.

I’m excited for reasons including the fact that I really enjoy Aaron Sorkin’s writing. As such, I’m hoping that his directing will be great too.

The pairing of Elba and Chastain is one I didn’t know I wanted to see until I just saw it. Fingers crossed that this film turns out really well.

Chris O’Dowd, Rachel Skarsten and Bill Camp also star.

Molly’s Game Release Dates: November 22nd, 2017 (US), December 29th, 2017 (UK)…

Jessica Chastain and Daniel Bruhl’s new movie, The Zookeeper’s Wife tells the true story of keepers of the Warsaw Zoo during the Nazi invasion.

Directed by Niki Caro and based on Diane Ackerman’s bestselling book, my reason for wanting to watch The Zookeeper’s Wife is the beautiful animals.That and Chastain’s rightly-celebrated acting talents, of course.

The Zookeeper’s Wife Release Dates: March 31st, 2017 (US); May 5th, 2017 (UK)…

Miss Sloane is the story of an ambitious lobbyists’s efforts to pass gun control legislation in the United states.

Starring Jessica Chastain, Gugu Mbatha-Raw and Jake Lacy, the movie is directed by John Madden of Shakespeare In Love (1998) and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel (2011).

I was really wanting to be more excited about this film after learning of the subject matter. However, this trailer doesn’t have me as desperate to see the movie as I’d hoped.

Perhaps my current lack of enthusiasm will be proven misplaced. I’m sure the knowledge that there’s currently very little, if any success in the US where gun control legislation is concerned certainly doesn’t help matters.

In the mean time, I say bring on that time in the future when the gun control legislation that’s desperately needed is finally a reality. 

Miss Sloane Release Dates: December 9th, 2016 (US)…
