Bill Skarsgård, the vampire in Nosferatu and the scary clown of It, is ready to reprise the role of a deadly villain. One of the most highly-anticipated horror series of 2025 will be a nine-episode prequel to Stephen King’s classic It. Get ready for Welcome to Derry premiering in 2025 on HBO and Max. No exact release date has been shared yet.

The director of It and It Chapter Two, Andy Muschietti, is also the creator, director, and actor in the series alongside Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs. And even though the show hasn't even premiered yet, we're already thinking ahead to its future. And so are the creators.

Muschietti shared that he has a three-season plan for the story, per Fangoria. If it happens, each installment would be distinctly mapped into three eras when the spine-chilling clown of Derry comes out of hibernation. This would include highlighting Mike Hanlon’s research,...

The upcoming TV series It: Welcome to Derry, which will serve as a prequel to Warner Bros’ two-part adaptation of the classic Stephen King novel It (pick up a copy Here), was originally meant to be for the Max streaming service, but we recently learned that it will be airing on HBO as well. The show went into production in Port Hope, Ontario at the end of last year, aiming for a 2025 premiere, and wrapped in August after 237 shooting days. We’re still waiting to hear exactly when the nine episode first season is going to start airing – but casting director Rich Delia has already confirmed that the show’s kid characters are not safe… which makes sense, when you’re dealing with an antagonist that describes itself as “the eater of worlds, and of children.”

Stephen King is probably the most popular horror author of all time. A very prolific author, King has released a series of books, the majority of which are under his own name, and most of them belong to the horror genre.

His enduring popularity is evidenced by the fact that he is one of the most often adapted authors, whether it’s the big or small screen we are dealing with. The year 2025 is also going to bring us a series of adaptations and in this report, we are going to list all the confirmed adaptations that are going to be released this year.

During a recent interview with Radio Tu (via MovieWeb), Muschietti shared some insight into the creative process of developing It — Welcome to Derry.

HBO chose Halloween, a very appropriate holiday, to release the first batch of photos from It: Welcome to Derry. The nine-episode prequel is expected to premiere in 2025.

The much-anticipated prequel to Stephen King’s It stars Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, James Remar, Stephen Rider, Madeleine Stowe, and Rudy Mancuso. Bill Skarsgård returns to the twisted world of Derry after starring as Pennywise in It and It Chapter Two.

“Set in the world of Stephen King’s It universe, It: Welcome to Derry is based on King’s It novel and expands the vision established by filmmaker Andy Muschietti in the feature films It and It Chapter Two,” reads HBO’s very basic description.

Andy Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti, and Jason Fuchs developed the series, and Andy Muschietti directed four episodes.

Taylour Paige in season...

Stephen King's book It, about a child-eating clown called Pennywise who terrorizes the small town of Derry on and off for decades, has been terrifying people ever since it first hit bookshelves in 1986. More recently, Andy Muschietti directed a pair of movies based on It that did quite well at the box office, well enough for HBO to greenlight a show set in Derry, decades before the events of the main story. It's called It: Welcome to Derry.

Normally I'd say this sounds like HBO is stretching, but two things make me optimistic: first, It is an enormous book, and there probably is enough in there to base a show on. Welcome to Derry will be based on the "interludes" throughout the book, when one of the main characters, Mike Hanlon, investigates incidents in Derry's past where Pennywise crawled out of his hole to wreck havoc, whipping the...

New It: Welcome to Derry images reveal more about the prequel's story and how it connects to Pennywise. The upcoming Max series explores the history of Derry, Maine and of Pennywise before the events of It and It Chapter Two, both of which are based on Stephen King's iconic 1986 novel. Welcome to Derry's cast includes Taylour Page, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, James Remar, and Stephen Rider. Bill Skarsgrd will also reprise his role of Pennywise from It and It Chapter Two in the series slated for a 2025 release.

HBO has now released new images that show Welcome to Derry's characters, including Mike Hanlon's father, Will, during his time in the Air Force. Check out the images below:

In the It novel, Will tells his son about opening a nightclub called the Black Spot that was later burned down by a white supremacist group. Through his research, Mike discovers...

A prequel to the two Stephen King-based It movies from Andy Muschietti, Max’s upcoming series “Welcome to Derry” will feature the return of Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise the Clown, but when can you expect to start streaming? Max is eyeing a 2025 premiere.

HBO’s Casey Bloys tells Variety this week, “One of the advantages that I think we have as a company, putting aside HBO for a second, is all the Warner Bros. IP. So after House of the Dragon, the next big tentpole series that we have coming up will be the Penguin with Colin Farrell. That is coming out of Matt Reeves’ The Batman and it’s fantastic. Just like Peacemaker came out of James Gunn’s Suicide Squad, it’s a really good example of what you can do. That’ll be in September.”

“And then after that, I don’t know if we landed on a date yet,...

The fantastic and at the same time disturbing world of Stephen King’s works is a place we always like to go back to. For decades now, King’s works have been adapted as both movies and television series, and while not all of them were equally successful, they became a part of history. New adaptations are coming up, of course, and one of them is the prequel series to the critically acclaimed It duology that came out recently. The series is going to be titled Welcome to Derry and in this article, we are going to reveal everything we know about the upcoming series.

In this report, as you might have guessed, we are going to bring you all that we know about the upcoming Welcome to Derry series in one place. You are going to find out all that we know about the series’ release date, episode count,...

Bill Skarsgård is back for more haunts as Pennywise the Clown. The actor has officially joined Max’s new prequel series Welcome to Derry, reprising the role he played in the 2017 films It and It: Chapter Two.

Per Deadline, Welcome to Derry is set for release in 2025 and will land on Max. The prequel series takes place in the 1960s before the events of the film and features the origin story of Pennywise the Clown, who would go on to terrorize the town of Derry for decades to come.

Skarsgård joins previously announced cast members Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, and James Remar. In addition to continuing his collaborative streak with Stephen King material after starring in Castle Rock from 2018-2019, Skarsgård is reuniting with Andy Muschietti, who directed both It films, as well as producers Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs. The series is produced by Warner Bros. Television.

Last year, we got word that the Max streaming service had given a straight-to-series order to an It prequel series which will delve into the backstory of the demonic (possibly alien) entity known as Pennywise, and we now have confirmation that Bill Skarsgård will reprise his terrifying big-screen role.

Deadline (via FearHQ.com) reports that Skarsgård is set to star in and executive produce Welcome To Derry (working title).

The Boy Kills World star joins previously cast Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, and James Remar.

It Parts 1 and 2 filmmakers Andy Muschietti and Barbara Muschietti are on board along with Jason Fuchs (It: Chapter Two). Andy will also direct multiple instalments of the series, including the first episode.

Specific plot details are still under wraps, but the show is expected to serve as a prequel story that will “expand the vision” of the recent movies. We know that Pennywise terrorised...

Bill Skarsgard will return as the terrifying Pennywise in TV series Welcome To Derry, a prequel to director Andy Muschietti’s It movies.

Bill Skarsgard, who brought his singular screen presence to the role of Pennywise the Clown in director Andrew Muschietti’s It movies, is to reprise the part in an upcoming prequel TV series. According to Deadline, Welcome To Derry (said to be a working title) will explore Pennywise’s origins in 1960s Maine. The show originally began production last May, but was delayed due to that year’s Hollywood strikes.

Andy Muschietti’s 2017 and 2019 films received critical praise and did big business at the box office, with plaudits going to Skarsgard’s commitment to Pennywise, with his performance switching seamlessly between low-key eeriness and over-the-top wildness. It also received praise for its tone, which veered from the typical Stephen King Stand By Me-esque coming of age...

Max series “Welcome to Derry” will be bringing a familiar face back to terrorize the children: Bill Skarsgård is set to reprise his role as Pennywise in the prequel series, Deadline reports tonight.

The upcoming series will premiere sometime in 2025. The series will be a prequel to the two Stephen King-based It movies from Andy Muschietti.

Skarsgård is set to star in and executive produce. The actor joins the previously announced cast of Taylour Paige (Zola), Jovan Adepo (“Watchmen”), Chris Chalk (“Perry Mason”), James Remar (Oppenheimer), Madeleine Stowe (Revenge) and Stephen Rider (Daredevil).

Andy Muschietti and Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs are on board the Pennywise prequel project from Warner Bros. Television, with Muschietti set to direct four episodes of the nine-episode series.

“The series will begin in the 1960s in the time leading up to the events of It: Part One, the 2017 film based on the Stephen King horror novel.

It's impossible to overstate the popularity of "It Chapter One" and "It Chapter Two," or how Bill Skarsgård's turn as the horrifying Pennywise the Clown has become the definitive portrayal for multiple generations. Based on the terrifying novel by Stephen King, "It" and Skarsgård's ability to move his eyes independently is most certainly responsible for increased levels of coulrophobia around the globe. The otherworldly creature known as It comes in many forms, but Pennywise the Clown is undoubtedly his most famous. Since arriving in the town of Derry, Maine, It has been devouring the citizens for hundreds of years, resting for 27 years between feeding cycles.

Warner Bros. Discovery's Max streaming service ordered a prequel series with the working title "Welcome to Derry" in 2023, but there hasn't been much movement on the project to report on. It's almost as if the evil was waiting until we collectively forgot about it,...
