Write this down and check back in with us in September - the It film is going to make an absolute s**t-ton of money at the box office.

What are we basing that assertion on, you might ask? Trailer views. It's now been confirmed that the trailer for Andy Muschietti's adaptation of It has amassed a whopping 197,000,000 views in the space of just twenty-four hours online.

This means that the It trailer now holds the record for most views within a day, beating the record previously held by Fast And Furious 8 - which had 139,000,000 views within a day. As well as this, It and the trailer trended globally on Twitter for most of the day, and received over 81,000,000 views from US users of Facebook alone.

There's no tracking data yet in terms of box office potential for It, but expectations are high on the back of news like this.

It hits Irish cinemas on September 8th.
