Invoice Skarsgård will reprise his position as one of many scariest clowns of all time — a formidable achievement, given the general terrifying nature of all clowns — within the upcoming It prequel TV present, Welcome to Derry, named for the city in Maine the place the occasions of the films befell.
Skarsgård beforehand performed Pennywise the killer clown, within the two-part adaptation of Stephen King’s It, directed by Andy Muschietti. This new collection, which Muschietti is engaged on, is ready previous to the occasions of the 2 movies, 2017’s It and 2019’s It Chapter Two. Mixed, the 2 Its grossed greater than $1.16 billion worldwide.
Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs developed the idea for Welcome to Derry. The collection is predicted to premiere on the Max streaming service.

When Max first introduced the collection, right here was how they described it:
Set on the earth of Stephen King’s “IT” universe, WELCOME TO DERRY (wt) relies on King’s “IT” novel and expands the imaginative and prescient established by filmmaker Andy Muschietti within the characteristic movies “IT” and “IT Chapter Two.”
Per Deadline, different members of the Derry solid embrace Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, and James Remar.
The It movies had fairly stacked casts, Chapter Two particularly, which starred Jessica Chastain, James McAvoy, and Invoice Hader. So guaranteeing Skarsgård will return as Pennywise takes care of the truth that any It prequel will essentially not embrace any of the beloved characters from the enduring Stephen King novel. However it may well — and now it is going to — have Pennywise, who seems to be like a clown however is definitely an historic monster who wakes each 27 years to feed on kids’s worry. (I’m placing all these “it”s in on objective, by the best way.)
Whereas Chastain, McAvoy, and Hader’s characters defeated Pennywise in It Chapter Two, there may be seemingly no finish to the tales you could possibly inform about Pennywise going again each 27 years to its prior assaults on the residents of Derry. How a few Pennywise horror story set in Colonial Maine? That sounds form of superior, truly.
