8 Things IT Chapter 2 Must Do To Succeed

8. Bring Back Chapter One's Entire Creative Team

Given how much of a success It: Chapter One has been for Warner Bros, you would think they'd immediately sign director Andy Muschietti, producer Barbara Muschietti, and several others on for the sequel.

Well... they haven't! Yet. Though the Muschiettis (and star Bill Skarsgard) are fully expected to return, a deal hasn't officially been inked. The only person we know will be back is writer Gary Dauberman, who's currently working on a draft of the script. We haven't heard anything about any of the other people involved, including cinematographer Chung-hoon Chung or producer Seth Grahame-Smith.

While it does take time to craft a deal both parties agree upon, it would be wise of Warner Bros to snap up the talent involved quickly - particularly Andy Muschietti, who's never been more in demand than he is right now.

And, while some sequels turn out just fine with a different creative team (recent horror flicks Annabelle: Creation and Ouija: Origin Of Evil are good examples) the fact that the second It film is literally the next chapter of the story means it's important that everyone who worked on the first movie returns to make the second, in order for both chapters to feel unified.
