American actor Isaiah Mustafa has been roped in to play Mike Hanlon in the second installment of the popular horror flick, 'It'.
The actor, best known as the face behind Old Spice television commercials, has joined the actors James McAvoy, Jessica Chastain, and Bill Hader in the film titled, 'It: Chapter Two'.
As confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter, the reboot of 2017 flick will focus on the adult versions of the subjected characters from the first film.
The demonic clown Pennywise, essayed by Bill Skarsgard, will also return to haunt the grownups.
The film, which is based on a Stephen King novel, is scheduled to go on floors in July.
Helmed by Andy Muschietti, the film will be screen written by Gary Dauberman, just like the first flick.
The horror-drama is expected to hit the theaters on September 06, 2019.
