π IT Chapter 3: Welcome to Derry
“Welcome to Derry” is the upcoming prequel to Andy Musciettiβs successful Stephen King film adaptations, “It” and “It Chapter Two”. These movies center around the town of Derry, plagued every 27 years by the malevolent entity known as Pennywise, a demonic clown with otherworldly origins capable of assuming various forms.
Pennywise thrives on fear, particularly of children, making him a formidable antagonist in the “It” series. While hints about Pennywise’s origins and motivations are scattered throughout Stephen King’s original novel and Muscietti’s films, much of his backstory remains shrouded in mystery. “Welcome to Derry” promises to delve deeper into Pennywise’s history and explore how his reign of terror impacts the town over an extended period.
