Xavier Dolan joins the cast of "It - Chapter Two"

Xavier is starting to become a hot commodity. Boy Erased and now IT.

Gurl, you made it!

Never mind all the films he's directed, R1?

Those were independent films. You haven't made it until you get an Oscar nomination and a box office hit.

R3, and yet they are still something way better than small supporting actor gigs in bigger movies.

Pray for dong.

R4, listen up. Xavier needs the hits in order to remain relevant. It's the way life works. You cannot direct movies if no investor knows who you are. Xavier will get a lot of goodwill with American investors if he nails this part down.

His character will be the Drew Barrymore of this decade. His death will open the film.

He's very cute, this will be interesting to watch.

he wants to be seen as versatile....in every sense of the word i'm sure he has a hairy butt hole is it tight? not sure

he can be bit bitchy sometimes because he is half french!

I thought he wants to be seen only as a top.

He probably lobbied hard for this role - he gushed all over the first film.

And all this time I thought he was just fangirling over the IT cast. Bitch knew he would be part of the film.

So whose cock did Xavier suck in order to get the part?

Doesn't Adrian die of a heart attack? Great murder

I watched Chaoter One. It’s just the same scene over and over.

So can someone summarize what his character goes through? It appears the fate of the gays is bad because they get attacked by homophobes and then eaten by the clown ?

I didn't much like the first film. Too much CGI and there wasn't much atmosphere, wasn't scary....even the awful 1990 version was creepier. Not sure I want to see the 2nd movie. What does everyone else think? In some ways it's a very unfilmable novel.

He sucked my cock to get the role

[quote] His character will be the Drew Barrymore of this decade. His death will open the film.

This is a joke, right? Drew's death in the first scream was shocking, because she was a big name actress back then and the audience expected her to last for much, much longer (if not survive and be the female lead / hero).

I mean, most people would go "Who?" when it comes to Xavier Dolan. Plus, a lot of people know what happens in Stephen King's book, so the surprise would rather come from changes being made that deviate from the source material and not because of the actor playing the character.

anything not to release that fucking movie he did in the US!!

At least they’ll be some decent eye candy in this one between McAvoy and James Ransone.

Ransone as the grown up Eddie is great casting.

There's other eye candy as well.

So it's a wish-fulfillment story?

Insufferable ! He's such an unbearable cunt. And the characters in his films are as annoying as he is. Lots of teenage yelling and anger.

Look at that smirking face...You just want to slap him silly

Am I crazy for always getting these guys confused?

I've seen a couple of his movies. Ok. But there's a scene in "Mother" that made me gasp. The kid is riding his bike and is very happy about something and all of a sudden the screen enlarges. It seemed like a brilliant way to show the kid's expanding horizon.

James Ransone is eye candy?

James Ransone? From Ken Park? Wow. Time flies.

James Ransone is eye candy.

His lesbian bff shitstain probably convinced the director who she's good friends with to cast this no talent cunt hack.

Nah, r16 - he sucked mine.

So who is going to play his boyfriend then? I don't think we know. In the book Xavier's character gets taken by the evil clown, but the boyfriend survives. I hope they cast another gay actor for the boyfriend part. <3

[quote] And all this time I thought he was just fangirling over the IT cast. Bitch knew he would be part of the film.

Did he already know he was going to be in the sequel when the first one came out? Or did he like the first one so much that he aggressively pursued this role?

Perhaps Connor Jessup can play the boyfriend.

R27 I felt dirty after finding him attractive in Ken Park. Kind of shocked that he's made a comeback as a handsome leading man.

It’s a small role and he’s killed pretty quickly.

I'd take James Ransone over that pretentious francophone brat anytime.

I wish he would just go away.

I don’t know her

I bet Xavier choose who'll be co-star. <3

I hope it's Jake Gyllenhaal

I smell Oscars!!!!

Why the hate for this guy? What’s he done?

He just wants to feel Bill's arms around Jim (In the book the clown breaks his ribs)

Ops, him

R42, tell us how the scene evolves. From what I gather, Xavier's character is thrown from a bridge, but how does he meet the clown? Does he even try to fight it or is unconscious?

Three homophobes attack Mellon and his partner. Mellon is thrown from a bridge and his partner sees Pennywise grab him. It's based on an actual murder in Bangor but there was no clown involved.

R25, yes, that was remarkable. The title is "Mommy."

[quote]James Ransone? From Ken Park? Wow. Time flies.

I wish he'd redo the wanking scene now when he's a proper adult. Sure he was around 22 when they filmed Ken Park but he played such a young man that watching it was a bit hard.

Taylor Frey's playing his boyfriend in the movie

i just wanna know when the fucking american movie he made will come out. Is it that shitty??

Goddamn that was bad movie.

The idea for the book is brilliant. A demon crashing into earth and preying on the town that was built over it even if it doesn’t make much sense. It’s too long and there is the gang-bang scene that brings everything down.

I hate that that was the hill the writer/director of True Detective chose to die on and lost the job. I thought he had the imagination to pull it off.

Xavier is such a pretentious asshole

Remember him whining about the critics at Cannes because they didn't like his pretentious movie ? What a spoiled brat.

I was wondering.: If Andy Cohen replaced Xavier Dolan as Adrian Mellon would that make Pennywise a sympathetic character ?

He deserves a place in the Dialing-the-phone-with-a-pencil Hall of Fame with these pictures:

Part one was not that good. I still can't believe it grossed a billion dollars worldwide. And it's not scary at all.

Teaser trailer.

Out September 6.

Agree that part one was overhyped. Not even remotely scary. I will watch part two though because I love Bill Hader.

Will Xavier finally show his petulant cock here?

New teaser trailer.

Lowkey creepy, not really scary. Hopefully the scary stuff was left out of the trailer.

Heartbeats was a fabulous movie . I like Xavier and look forward to how he matures in his work. Its funny how I was an avid Steven King fan for years,then I guess I outgrew it and find his more recent work tedious.

I'm looking forward to Xavier the most in this movie but the description makes it sound so retrograde. So he'll get bullied for being gay and then promptly killed by Pennywise? Hope they update it a bit for 2019.

Is he playing an adult who is presently getting bullied, or is he playing the adult version of a kid who was bullied for being gay?

r63 Oh, I see now, the time jump would make much more sense. Fingers crossed he's living a fulfilling life before Bill gets him.

Is this our Xavier? He’s French.

Maybe Pennywise will transform into a random trick, and will kill Xavier's character mid-coitus.

r66 It'll be something more family-friendly, I'm sure. I just hope it's not framed in a way that could be interpreted as Xavier being punished for being gay and/or it coming across as a joke to make the straight audience laugh at him. That would fucking suck.

What r38 said...
