It
The 2017ITmovie may not have a right post - credits setting , but it does still have a pretty awesome tease snuck in at the very destruction of the production names that whets your appetite forChapter Two .
All things considered , ITends on a rather happy note . The Losers ' Club has overtake their deepest fright to on the face of it beat terrorizing entity Pennywise and , while they ’re going separate ways , the seven have made a blood pact that colligate them together on the promise they ’ll return should IT return . All that ’s left is for them to fade into the distance and wonder if they ’ll ever have friends like this again ( Jesus , does anyone ? ) .
But this is n’t really the destruction . A continuation that will tackle the unadapted half of Stephen King ’s novelis already set for 2019 , following the middle - older Losers ' Club returning to Derry to end off the inter - dimensional creature that grips their town once and for all . And while Andy Muschietti and author Gary Dauberman mostly focused on aStand By Meevoking terminal note , they could n’t resist a cheeky tease of the horror ’s to come .
What’s In The Post-Credits Tease?
There ’s not a full scene like consultation have become wonted to thanks to Marvel and their share universe ilk , butITstill has a rather reveal audio tease . As the protracted credits get along to the end , you could find out a chorus of creepy-crawly tyke let the cat out of the bag " Oranges and Lemons " , the strain that across the movie has become synonymous with the fear - feeding creature .
Then the audio equivalent of a money slam - Pennywise gag ; at the very , very end of the credits we get a full , unbridled laugh from the clown we last saw break up and lessen down a never - ending shaft in the Derry cloaca .
What The Laugh Means
It ’s a thin audio second that few will have stayed for ( in part due to the lack of coverage of anything after the credits ) and even fewer will have felt was worth the delay . However , this is a middling major reveal in the story , one that realigns the pretty terminate we just see .
In brusque , it signals to the interview that Pennywise has survived . The Losers were able to beat back the clown form of IT and through that cause serious damage , but they did n’t make a killing blow ; he ’s resting , wait the 27 year until he needs to give again - and he ’s already relishing the terror he ’ll cause .
The tattle children , however , confront something a little darker . The film ’s illusive happy conclusion made it seem like the children Pennywise had been ensnaring and storing up around his rubble towboat had their souls released - they literally discontinue floating - but now that all count like a show ; the singing suggests the army that patrol the Derry sewers is still ensnared by the brute , forced to whistle about the bells of St. Clements forever .
More than a cheerless coda , this could jell up some interesting developments in the sequel , specifically in esteem to Georgie ; if Bill Denbrough ’s brother is still under IT ’s control , we could see Jackson Robert Scott repay to torment his now - grownup pal .
Of course , that second part is up to conjecture - it could just have been a creepy choice made by the filmmakers - but the tease all does an effectual job of make their ultimate point : the combat is n’t over yet .
What Other Teases Are There?
There is n’t a complete absence of extra material from the movie universe . Last month , to hype up the film ’s arrival , Warner Bros. exhaust a VR experience onYouTubethat put you in the shoes of Georgie Denbrough after he ’s ensnared by Pennywise . There ’s no amputation event ( perplex to result some gory surprises for the film ) , but it takes you on a journey through the sewers , come up against several balloon - clownjump scares , before finally putting you confront to face with IT as it floats you up . It ’s a dandy enlargement that you’re able to check out below .
you’re able to bet Warner Bros. wish that they ’d made a more elaborated cut now thatITis a bona fide box office smash ; the film get the biggest revulsion opening of all time , bringing in more money across its first weekend than eitherWonder WomanandSpider - Man : Homecomingmanaged . There ’s cleared interest in Stephen King ’s creepy goof , so it ’s a ignominy they did n’t take advantage on it witha reveal of the older loser ' Club(of course , they ’re not cast yet , but that ’s further weak forward planning ) or a honkytonk into Pennywise ’s past ( a couple of examples of which were in early versions of the handwriting but later on cut ) .
But , while it ’s anaemic , we still got a chilling hope of more terror to come inChapter Two . IT floats .
