IT is one of the biggest hits of the year, so perhaps it’s no surprise that Warner Bros. is going to pump some money into a director’s cut. Director Andy Muschietti revealed to Yahoo! that his director’s cut that will be released with the regular edition on home video at the end of the year.
As for what the director’s cut will contain, Muschietti didn’t go too much into specifics, but he did note one scene that was particularly difficult to cut:
“There’s a great scene, it’s a bit of a payoff of the Stanley Uris plot which is the bar mitzvah, where he delivers a speech against all expectations… it’s basically blaming all the adults of Derry [for the town’s history of deadly “accidents” and child disappearances], and it has a great resolution. … Maybe it will be in the director’s cut!” …

After Credits Scene? No
Super entertaining movie. I saw a lot of the scares coming (still scared the shit out of me) but the one that really made me jump I didn’t see anyone mention: it was after the girl hit her abusive father in the bathroom. She smacks him in the head and I got such a happy feeling that he got what was coming to him, but then when she turns to leave Pennywise is there and grabs her by the neck. Freaked me the f— out!
