They talk about catastrophic events from the past, like the fire in the Black Spot... the massacre of the Bradley Gang, a gang of bank robbers in the 30s... and the explosion at the Kitchener Ironworks. Every time [evil clown Pennywise] comes out of hibernation, there is a catastrophic event that happens at the beginning of that cycle."
"HBO's new show is a nine-episode series that will serve as a prequel to Stephen King's best-selling, terrifying story about Pennywise, an ancient, evil creature who often appears as a clown. It has been developed by Andy and Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs, all of whom were involved in the 2017 film. The series has been mapped out as a three-season story, to be told in reverse."
HBO's new show is a nine-episode prequel to Stephen King's bestselling horror It, focusing on Pennywise, an ancient evil often appearing as a clown. The series was developed by Andy and Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs, who worked on the 2017 film. The story is mapped as three seasons told in reverse, beginning in 1962 when a couple moves to Derry with their son as disturbing incidents start. Later seasons will jump further back to earlier catastrophic events linked to Pennywise's cycles, including the Black Spot fire, the Bradley Gang massacre and the Kitchener Ironworks explosion. The cast mixes newcomers and established actors, led by Bill Skarsgård reprising Pennywise.
