Bill Hader’s Daughter Calls Out His Performance in “It Chapter 2”

The comedian’s daughter agrees with critics that the blockbuster horror movie’s sequel is bad.

The well-known comedian and actor Bill Hader is well-known for his diverse performances in a wide range of motion pictures and television series. But it appears that not everyone, even his daughter, is thrilled by his efforts. Hader recently disclosed in an interview that his daughter did not enjoy his role in the horror movie “It Chapter 2.”

Hader, who portrayed the movie’s adult Richie Tozier, revealed that his daughter had a negative opinion of the film and that she liked the previous one more. It’s interesting to see that she shares the views of many critics who thought the sequel was inferior to the first.

In an interview on “Late Night with Seth Meyers,” Hader revealed, “My daughter was like, ‘Yeah, the first one was better.'” He continued by saying that, in general, his kids don’t want to watch him in films, particularly ones that have adult themes or content.

The 2019 release, “It Chapter 2,” was the follow-up to the 2017 smash hit horror movie “It.” The same-titled Stephen King novel served as the inspiration for both movies. The first movie was a huge commercial and critical success, but the second movie had mixed reviews.

“It” has an 85% reviewer approval rating on the well-known review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, whereas “It Chapter 2” comes in last with a 62% rating. This disparity in critical reception suggests that Hader’s daughter is not alone in her assessment of the film.

Family Life and Comedic Legacy

After becoming well-known as a cast member of “Saturday Night Live,” Bill Hader has become a major player in the entertainment sector. Among the many honors he has received for his comedic abilities are two Emmy Awards for his performance on the HBO dark comedy series “Barry.”

Hader values his family life and maintains his groundedness despite his achievements. With his ex-wife, filmmaker Maggie Carey, he has three daughters. Hader’s ability to manage his work and parenting is a credit to his character, even though his kids might not be impressed by his on-screen pursuits.

A Lowly View of Stardom

Hader’s humility is demonstrated by his readiness to share his daughter’s criticism of his performance. Hader’s humility is refreshing in a field where vanity and self-importance are commonplace.

His tale serves as a reminder that even the most prosperous people are scrutinized and that sometimes the people who are most critical of us are also the ones who are closest to us. Hader’s strong sense of self and dedication to his family, however, is demonstrated by his capacity to laugh at himself and accept his daughter’s viewpoint.
