'It' Remake Trailer Gathers 200M Views in One Day; All Compteition Stomped

"It," the horror novel created by author Stephen King, will once again have an adaptation which could resurrect one of the scariest classic tales of the early 90's. Given that there has only been one trailer thus far, the hype around the flick has escalated a lot faster than expected to the point that it exceeded records.

According to Vanity Fair, the "It" remake recently launched a trailer, particularly the first official trailer for the movie, which acquired a massive 197 million views on the first day. This immediately trampled over the closest competition, namely "Fate of the Furious" which gathered only 139 million views. While the movie is still a number of months away, the remake is already expected to acquire great revenue as it pays homage to the original TV mini-series.

Fans of the graphic novel and the TV rendition of "It" can recall the fear that the movie struck into the hearts of children and adults everywhere-especially towards clowns. The original portrayal was given by actor Tim Curry, who many appraised on being a remarkable performance; whereas the upcoming version is to be played by Bill Skarsgard-which as early as the present, is considered utterly creepy by many.

"It" talks about a group of children known as The Losers Club, who discovers a terrorizing entity within Derry, Maine, who at most times takes the form of a clown. Named Pennywise, the particular dark being started to take the lives of local kids, and it is up to the club to stop it. The cast is made up of Jaeden Lieberher, Sophia Lillis, Finn Wolfhard, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Wyatt Oleff, Chosen Jacobs and Jack Dylan Grazer.

The "It" remake is scheduled to release on September 8, 2017. What do you think of the upcoming reimagining of the Stephen King classic?
