A countdown for the IT: Chapter Two trailer has revealed what time fans will get their first look at the sequel. Based on Stephen King's terrifying novel, the original film was a huge success when it released in 2017, and it helped Warner Bros. pass $5 billion at the global box office that year. The reception for the film was mostly positive from fans and critics alike, so it wasn't a surprise when a sequel was announced.

IT: Chapter Two will take place 27 years later, as the Loser's Club return to Derry after Pennywise re-emerges. The child actors who portrayed the younger versions of the Loser's will be involved, and they will be joined by their adult counterparts. The now grown up Loser's have moved on from Derry since their last encounter with Pennywise, but as they agreed many years ago, Pennywise's return leads to each of them making their way back home to conquer the shape-shifting clown once and for all. Recently, Warner Bros. revealed that the IT: Chapter Two trailer would arrive this Thursday, and now an official time of release is known.

An official countdown from Warner Bros. has revealed that the trailer for IT: Chapter Two will arrive at 12pm ET/9am PT tomorrow. Footage from IT: Chapter Two was shown during CinemaCon earlier this year, but this will be the general public's first look at the highly anticipated sequel. With an official link to the trailer already up, expect IT: Chapter Two to be trending tomorrow, as several fans have waited patiently to get their first look at Pennywise back in action. Check out the countdown below:

IT: Chapter Two is expected to be one of the more popular releases from the horror genre this year, and star Jessica Chastain has already teased that it will feature the bloodiest scene in a horror movie. As shown in the thumbnail for the trailer, it seems that plans for a third movie may not be underway just yet, and they probably never will. The text in the background invites audiences to witness what could be the last film featuring Pennywise and the Loser's Club. Of course, depending on how well the sequel performs at the box office, Warner Bros. may want to have Pennywise return again. However, if a third film does get greenlit, it will be interesting to see what the story will be because King's novel will have concluded with this upcoming sequel.

With only a few months till the film's official release, fans will get their first look tomorrow when the trailer arrives online. Cast members and producers alike have been teasing the trailer for a while now, but the wait is finally almost over. There are less than 24 hours until the general public gets its long overdue first look at IT: Chapter Two, so the hype for its September release date will certainly grow after tomorrow.
