'IT' prequel series WelcomeToDerry has set a release window.
One of the most popular franchises to get a revival in the last decade has been Stephen King's IT. The Iconic horror author’s most popular book got rebooted by Warner Brothers with Andy Muschietti’s 2017 film It which quickly led to a sequel in 2019. The dreadfully scary franchise is about to expand into a new prequel series for WB’s rebranded Max streaming service, and now we know Welcome to Derry will debut in 2024.
The news came as part of a larger Max rebranding announcement where WB laid out their new pricing model and future lineup for the streaming service. This shouldn’t come as much of a surprise as the first casting announcements for Derry were made earlier this month. So far the IT prequel series stars Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, and James Remar. The series will be co-showrun by Jason Fuchs and Brad Caleb Kane while Muschietti will direct several episodes of Derry.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT What’s Welcome to Derry about? While there’s still a lot of horrifying mystery surrounding the series, Welcome to Derry will start in the 1960s and slowly lead up to the events of the first IT film. While Bill Skarsgård’s not expected to return to the series as Pennywise, Derry will be further exploring the villain’s origin story. This is only something that was hinted at in the two It films.
Smartly the film only covered half the story, the Derry kid’s younger years, which left a lot of room for the sequel to run wild in 2019. While Chapter 2 focused on the children as adults with Pennywise returning after they were defeated 27 years prior, the film was at a disadvantage because it was telling what most fans consider the weakest part of the story. That being said, Chapter 2 still managed to be a scary good time at the movies and was another major hit for WB.
While horror fans anxiously wait for 2024 to return to Derry, you can view the 2017 IT trailer down below.
