The haunting legacy of Stephen King’s most chilling creation continues as HBO unveils the official trailer and key art for its new original drama series, IT: Welcome to Derry, premiering Monday, October 27 on HBO and streaming on HBO Max. Across eight spine-tingling episodes, the series will roll out weekly, leading to a season finale on December 15.
Developed for television by visionary filmmakers Andy Muschietti and Barbara Muschietti (IT, IT Chapter Two, The Flash) alongside Jason Fuchs (Wonder Woman, Argylle), the series invites viewers back into the dark, twisted heart of King’s iconic universe. With Andy Muschietti returning to direct multiple episodes, the show expands upon the cinematic world first brought to life in IT and IT Chapter Two.
A Return to Derry
Based on Stephen King’s legendary novel, IT: Welcome to Derry dives deeper into the town where nightmares never sleep. Long before the Losers’ Club faced Pennywise, Derry’s unsettling history had already begun to unfold. This series promises to explore those origins, unearthing horrors both familiar and new.
An Unforgettable Cast
The chilling ensemble features Jovan Adepo, Taylour Paige, Chris Chalk, James Remar, Stephen Rider, Madeleine Stowe, Rudy Mancuso, and the haunting return of Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise. Their performances will breathe new terror into a story that has already captured imaginations worldwide.
Behind the Shadows
Produced by HBO and Warner Bros. Television, the project is powered by a powerhouse team of executive producers, including Andy and Barbara Muschietti (through Double Dream), Jason Fuchs, Brad Caleb Kane, David Coatsworth, Bill Skarsgård, Shelley Meals, Roy Lee, and Dan Lin. Fuchs penned the first episode’s teleplay, with Fuchs and Kane serving as co-showrunners.
