James Ransone will play adult Eddie and the resemblance is uncanny.
The highly anticipated sequel to last year's IT won't hit theaters until September 2019, but fans are already in for a casting treat.
The beloved character of Eddie Kaspbrak in the film (played by Jack Dylan Grazer) will be older in the sequel and the casting is way too perfect.
James Ransone has reportedly signed on to play Eddie in the time jump and fans have noticed that he bears a striking resemblance to Jack Dylan Grazer.

James Ransone as adult Jack Dylan Grazer is such great casting that I'm pretty sure a lot of people who go see IT: Chapter 2 are going to be completely convinced that the 1st film's Eddie somehow aged rapidly. pic.twitter.com/UOc0ekQtKQ

We know that actors in a time jump are SUPPOSED to look like their younger counterparts, but this is just too uncanny.
James Ransone reportedly deleted a tweet were he said of Jack Grazer "well, it's official. I will have these very big small shoes to fill."
Jack responded to the quippy confirmation of sorts with this iconic tweet.

James, who has appeared in Law & Order, Hawaii Five-O, and The Wire, is the latest adult member of "The Losers Club" to be confirmed. James will join Hollywood heavyweight Jessica Chastain (Beverly) and, hopefully, James McAvoy (Bill) and Bill Hader (Ritchie) who are both in talks to appear in the film.
Andy Bean was also confirmed to play adult Stanley, another outstanding casting choice.
