A-ha! Paul Rudd for Ritchie Tozier!

now this i could get behind, but can he do voices? that's the real question

The issue with the adult casting is the actors have to be pushing 40, so that narrows down the list quite a bit. Also, I'm thinking you want to cast someone who feasibly resembles the child actors.

Off the top of my head though:

James McAvoy - Bill Denbrough

Ben Hanscom - Chris Pratt

Tobey Maguire - Eddie Kaspbrak (there was someone else I had in mind, but can't think of the actor's name right now)

I actually really like the idea of Ritchie played by Seth Greene of course I also think it would be neat to see Emily Perkins play the older Bev Michael Cudlitz for Ben Ed Norton for Bill maybe Gustav Skarsgard would be an interesting choice for Stan and Eddie, Evan Peters,a little younger, but I think he could pull it off.

Evan Peters is a great actor and one of the few reasons I keep watching the rubbish that is American Horror Story. While Peters is too young to play any of the adult Losers, I like him for Louis Creed in a Pet Sematary adaptation.

Having studied the facial features and structure of the young actress playing Bev, I think my choice for the adult version would be Amy Adams. They have the same shape face, eyes, and hair almost the same shade. The slight differences would easily be assumed by age. Moreover, Amy Adams has the acting chops and would be about the right age (close enough for Hollywood).

Examples of facial match between actresses:

 

[DiO'Bolic]

I don’t know names of most actors or actresses these days and don’t even know many of the bigger stars of today. But I think whoever did the casting for Pulp Fiction would do King’s It justice.

I pick the newest Spiderman actor for Eddie. I think that covers all three Spidermen!

 

[MarkFurru82]

Here's what I think...

Bradley Cooper - Bill
Matt Damon - Ben
Amy Adams - Bev
Bill Hader - Ritchie
Charlie Day - Eddie
Chiwetel Ejiofor - Mike
Eli Roth (in a rare acting appearance) - Stan
Jon Bernthal - Henry
Ben Affleck - Tom
Isla Fisher - Audra
Matt Bomer - Adrian
Benjamin Bratt - Greco
Lorenza Izzo - Stan's Wife
Alan Arkin - Mr. Keene

Yeah, that would be cool. Who are you thinking for the new Jud? My pick would be Jon Voight. And possibly Alan Arkin for Louis' father-in-law.

I don't know anything Scoot McNairy was in so I can't say, Have you seen McAvoy in Split? He rocks the bald look.

Yeah, the suggestion for Tozier was just some fun stunt casting on my part. I don't know that many contemporary actors that I consider funny, so this one has me kinda stumped.

For Beverly, how about Chastain's less pretty but still fiery hot doppelgänger, Bryce Dallas Howard?

Whoa, yeah, dude...I could watch Opie's daughter do anything! Gimme!

 

[StormDrainWithTeeth]

It would be nice to see some of the original IT cast return to play their roles. In particular Seth Green as Richie Tozier and Emily Perkins as Beverly Marsh. I think Jared Padalecki would be good for Bill Denbrough, and Michael Cudlitz would make a good Ben Hanscom. I haven't got anyone in mind for the rest of the Losers club, but I've seen some great suggestions on here.
