This time next year we will be soooo close to seeing IT: CHAPTER TWO, and some set photos of Pennywise that made the rounds yesterday make you wish that year will go by quickly. But to make you feel like we’re really getting there, director Andy Muschietti posted a new picture that proves two things: a.) his friendship with Jessica Chastain is beautiful and we should all be thankful for it every day and b.) Chastain has wrapped filming on the movie, and clearly, she got into some bloody business on her last day.

Muschietti posted the pic on Monday with the caption, “Ch-ch-ch-ch chastain, and face the strange 🎼 she’s soooo happy when she can smear her fake blood on me ❤️ @jessicachastain #championofhumans #beverlymarsh #wrappedbutnotforgotten.” Chastain is caked in fake blood, which means her character, Beverly Marsh, either did some serious demon-clown killing or didn’t learn her lesson about leaning over sinks drains.

Production on the movie itself is still ongoing, as we saw pictures of Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise floating down from a giant Paul Bunyan statue. The movie has been filming for about two months at this point, and as of tomorrow, we will be exactly one year away from the movie’s release date on September 6, 2019. Chastain is joined by James McAvoy as Bill Denbrough, Bill Hader as Richie Tozier, James Ransone as Eddie Kaspbrak, Andy Bean as Stanley Uris, Jay Ryan as Ben Hanscom and Isaiah Mustafa as Mike Hanlon as the Losers Club uniting once again to take on the clown 27 years after the events of the first movie.
IT: CHAPTER TWO arrives September 6, 2019.
