As dream-casted by many fans before the casting news became official, two-time Oscar nominee Jessica Chastain plays the adult Beverly, who is a successful fashion designer stuck in a string of abusive relationships following her childhood abuse. Sophia Lillis became one of It's breakout stars after playing young Beverly in the 2017 hit film, going on to star in HBO's Sharp Objects and playing the famous Nancy Drew in Warner Bros.' big-screen adaptation.
For adult Beverly, Chastain was the producers' first and only choice, and even toyed with adding a post-credits at the end of the first movie that would reveal the big casting news.
