IT 2: Jessica Chastain Willing To Play Adult Bev

IT was a surprisingly huge hit. It virtually turned into the cultural phenomenon of the film season, which was desperately needed in a film season full of countless duds and flops. Of course, with the film being a big success, we now know that the planned sequel is for sure going to happen, and that’s opened the floodgates for conversations surrounding potential casting.

Who would take on the roles of these kids as adults? It’s been the subject of many a film blog article — hell, even we’ve thrown our hat in the ring with our own two cents. However, one role that’s been relatively consistent across the board is Jessica Chastain as Bev.

But is it possible? Speaking with Screen Rant, Chastain herself expressed her interest in It: Chapter 2, saying:

“Well, I love [director and producer] Andy and Barbara [Muschietti]. I worked with them on Andy’s directorial debut, you know, his film, Mama. His first film. And you know, Barbara is one of my best friends so… Listen, of course, I want to work… they’re my friends. They’re like my family. Anything that they’re doing I want to be a part of, so I hope we can make it happen.”

You hear that, folks. It’s much more than just a pipe dream now. It’s now a very real possibility! But is she the best one to take on the role? I personally recommended Amy Adams for the role, and while she’s not a redhead, Heather Graham would also be a different choice.
