It is an upcoming 2017 supernatural horror drama film and an adaptation of Stephen King's 1986 horror novel It.[14][15] The film tells the story of seven children as they are terrorized by the eponymous being, which exploits the fears and phobias of its victims in order to disguise itself while hunting its prey.[16][17] "It" primarily appears in the form of a clown in order to attract its preferred prey of young children.[18] It deals with themes that eventually became King staples: the power of memory, childhood trauma, and the ugliness lurking behind a façade of traditional small-town values.[19][20][21]

The film is being directed by Andrés Muschietti, who co-wrote the screenplay with Gary Dauberman, Chase Palmer, Cary Fukunaga, and David Kajganich.[7][22] Bill Skarsgård stars as Pennywise The Dancing Clown, with Jaeden Lieberher starring as Bill Denbrough.[23] Jeremy Ray Taylor, Sophia Lillis, Finn Wolfhard, Wyatt Oleff, Chosen Jacobs, and Jack Grazer are all featured in supporting roles.[23] Principal photography began in Toronto, Canada on June 27, 2016 and ended on September 21.[24][25] The locations being used for It are in the municipality of Port Hope and Oshawa, Ontario, as well as Riverdale, Toronto.[26][27][28]

Premise

It begins with the murder of a child, George Denbrough, in a small town's local storm drain, in the fall of 1988. One year later, in the summer of 1989, Georgie's older brother and his group of friends begin a search for the killer, eventually discovering the murder was committed by an evil entity.[29]

Cast

Forms of It

An ageless, shapeshifting evil that awakens every three decades. The entity terrifies a small town's children, forcing them to fight back.[1][30][31] Will Poulter was previously cast in the role but was forced to drop out due to scheduling conflicts,[1] with Poulter stating, "I was when Mr. Fukunaga was directing, but the circumstances at New Line are such that a new director's attached now."[32] Poulter continued, "I think, with all due respect to him of course, I was selected by Cary and subscribed to Cary's vision for the movie, and so I haven't had a chance to connect with that [new] director."[33] Mark Rylance, Ben Mendelsohn, Kirk Acevedo and Hugo Weaving were considered for the role,[34][35][36] with Mendelsohn passing on the project, as New Line wanted him to take a sizable pay cut.[37] On June 3, 2016, The Independent officially reported, after final negotiations took place, that Muschietti had chosen actor Bill Skarsgård to portray the character.[38] On portraying Pennywise, Skarsgård stated, "It's such an extreme character. Inhumane, It's beyond even a sociopath, because he's not even human. He's not even a clown. I'm playing just one of the beings It creates."[39] Skarsgård described the character further, saying, "It truly enjoys the shape of the clown Pennywise, and enjoys the game and the hunt." He also commented,[40] "What's funny to this evil entity might not be funny to everyone else. But he thinks it's funny."[41] On Pennywise's design, Skarsgård stated, "It's important that we do something fresh and original for this one. It's purposely not going toward that weird, greasy look."[42] He also commented on being compared to Tim Curry, stating that, "[Curry]'s performance was truly great, but it's important for me to do something different because of that. I'll never be able to make a Tim Curry performance as good as Tim Curry."[43][44] Skarsgård also elaborated on his age, stating, "There's a childishness to the character, because he's so closely linked to the kids. The clown is the manifestation of children's imaginations, so there's something child-like about that."[45] Producer Dan Lin spoke of Skarsgård's physical attributes: "His build is really interesting. He's really tall and lanky, and feels a little clown like in his movement. When he came in — we had a lot of different actors read, and when he came in he had a different spin on the character that got us really excited."[46] Lin concluded by making comparisons to Heath Ledger's Joker, "You've had [Ledger] doing almost a clown joker, you've seen obviously Tim Curry as a clown. We wanted someone who created a Pennywise character that would stand on its own and Bill came in and created this character that frankly freaked us out."[46]

The Losers' Club

The leader of the Losers' Club, who vows to get revenge on the monster with the help of his friends.[51][52] Denbrough losing his brother makes the battle against It a more personal crusade for him than any of the others. That and his stutter is what binds him to the group and transforms him into Big Bill, the leader.[53] Before Lieberher's confirmation in June 2016,[54] Ty Simpkins considered for the role in Cary Fukunaga's production, with Simpkins later passing on the project for financial reasons.[55]
He was one of the members of The Losers' Club, who fought against Pennywise the Clown.[56] Hanscom being overweight earns his place in the Loser's Club, but like all of the Losers, there are underlying facets that define him far more than his weight.[53]
The only female member of the Losers' Club, who forms a strong bond with Ben Hanscom and develops a crush on Bill Denbrough.[57] Beverly's Losership wasn't defined by the fact she was abused but by her poverty.[53] She was one of the members of The Losers' Club, who fought against Pennywise the Clown.[56]
The bespectacled best friend of Bill Denbrough, also known as 'Trashmouth Tozier' due to his foul language and loud mouth that often got him into trouble.[53] Tozier was one of the members of The Losers' Club, who fought against Pennywise the Clown.[56] Wolfhard shared the first image of the Losers Club on his Instagram account, with the photo captioned as "The Losers Club take Toronto", showing the cast of actors who will be playing the protagonists of the piece.[58][59]
He was one of the members of The Losers' Club, who fought against Pennywise the Clown.[56] Kaspbrak is the epitome of the hypochondriac, overly exaggerated by the immense amount of stuff in his medicine cabinet; a sickly boy who only feels truly well when he's with his friends.[53]
An African American autodidact of history, who relays the incidents of Derry's past to his friends – The fire at the Black Spot, the Bradley Gang shoot-out, and the mass-murder at the Silver Dollar.[53] He was one of the members of The Losers' Club, who fought against Pennywise the Clown.[56]

The Bowers Gang

A young sociopath who leads the Bowers Gang, and who terrorizes the Losers' Club.[60][61] Hamilton prepared for the role by studying Jarred Blancard's portrayal of the character in It (1990), and in Hamilton's words, "watched all the bits of my original character" for research.[62] Hamilton added, through the character of Bowers, that "There's stuff that I have to do that is really creepy and the opportunity to help share my psychotic side has been really fun."[62] Additionally Hamilton stated, "I recently did a scene where I was working with Jeremy Ray Taylor. I had to terrorize the hell out of him and get right in his face."[62]
A young psychopath who keeps a refrigerator full of animals that he's killed.[63] Hockstetter hides a dark, murderous secret that is in keeping with the content of It, and will probably shape his character in the film,[64] while it was noted that Teague shares some very uncomfortable scenes together with Hamilton's Bowers.[65]
The inseparable friend of Henry Bowers, and the youngest yet smartest member of the Bowers Gang, who hesitantly assists Bowers in terrorizing the Losers' Club.[66][67][68]

Production

The project has been in ongoing development since 2009.[72][73][74] To date, the proposed film adaptation has gone through two major phases of planning: initially with Cary Fukunaga from 2009 to 2015, with the early contributions of screenwriter David Kajganich, and currently with Andrés Muschietti, with Fukunaga remaining in some capacity due to prior screenplay contributions.[49][75][76][77]

Cary Fukunaga (2009–15)

"I am in the midst of rewriting the first script now. We're not working on the second part yet. The first script is just about the kids. It's more like The Goonies (1985) meets a horror film [...] We're definitely honoring the spirit of Stephen King, but the horror has to be modernized to make it relevant. That's my job, right now, on this pass. I'm working on making the horror more about suspense than visualization of any creatures. I just don't think that's scary. What could be there, and the sounds and how it interacts with things, is scarier than actual monsters. "

– Cary Fukunaga, on the development of It[78]

On March 12, 2009, Variety reported that Warner Bros. would be bringing Stephen King's novel to the big screen, with David Kajganich to adapt King's novel, while Dan Lin, Roy Lee and Doug Davison would be producing the piece.[79] When Kajganich learnt of Warner Bros.' plans to adapt King's novel, he went after the job.[80] Knowing that Warner Bros. was committed to adapting It as a single feature film, Kajganich began to reread the novel in an attempt to try to find a structure that would accommodate such a large number of characters in two different time periods, around 120 pages, which was one of Warner Bros.' stipulations.[81] Kajganich worked with Lin, Lee, and Davison on The Invasion (2007), and he knew they would champion good storytelling, and allow him the time to work out a solid first draft of the screenplay.[82] Kajganich spoke of the remake being set in the, "mid-1980s and in the present [...] mirroring the twenty-odd-year gap King uses in the book [...] and with a great deal of care and attention paid to the backstories of all the characters."[83]

Kajganich also mentioned that Warner Bros. wished for the adaptation to be rated R which he furthered by saying, "[...] we can really honor the book and engage with the traumas (both the paranormal ones and those they deal with at home and school) that these characters endure.", while Kajganich acknowledged that Warner Bros. wanted the adaptation as a single film.[84] He said that his dream choice for Pennywise would be Buster Keaton if he were still alive, and the Pennywise that Kajganich scripted being "a less self-conscious of his own irony and surreality."[85] On June 29, 2010, the screenplay was being re-written by Kajganich.[86]

On June 7, 2012, The Hollywood Reporter had revealed that Cary Fukunaga was boarding the project as director and will co-write the script with Chase Palmer, while Roy Lee and Dan Lin are producing, as with Seth Grahame-Smith and David Katzenberg of KatzSmith Productions.[87] On May 21, 2014, Warner Bros. was announced to have moved the film to its New Line Cinema division, with overseer duties conducting by New Line's Walter Hamada and Dave Neustadter, along with Vice President of Production at Warner Bros., Niija Kuykendall.[88] On December 5, 2014, in an interview with Vulture, Dan Lin announced that the first film will be a coming-of-age story about the children tormented by It and the second will skip ahead in time as those same characters band together to continue the fight as adults.[89] Lin also stated that Fukunaga was only committed to directing the first film, though was currently closing a deal to co-write the second. Lin concluded by mentioning King, to which he remarked, "The most important thing is that [King] gave us his blessing. We didn't want to make this unless he felt it was the right way to go, and when we sent him the script, the response that Cary got back was, 'Go with God, please! This is the version the studio should make.' So that was really gratifying."[90] Lin confirmed that Fukunaga would begin principal photography in Summer 2016.[91]

On February 3, 2015, Fukunaga was interviewed by Slate wherein he spoke about It, while mentioning he has someone in mind for the role of Pennywise.[92] On March 3, 2015, Fukunaga spoke of the film, particularly nothing his goal to find the "perfect guy to play Pennywise". Fukunaga also revealed that he, Kajganich and Palmer had changed the names and dates in the script, adding, "[...] the spirit is similar to what he'd like to see in cinemas."[93] On May 4, 2015, it was officially announced that Will Poulter had been cast to play Pennywise, after Fukunaga was "blown away" by his audition.[94][95] Ty Simpkins was considered to play one of The Losers' Club members.[55]

On May 25, 2015, it was reported that Fukunaga had dropped out as the director of It.[96] According to The Wrap, Fukunaga clashed with the studio and didn't want to compromise his artistic vision in the wake of budget cuts by New Line, which greenlit the first film at $30 million.[97] However, Fukunaga maintained that wasn't the case; with him stating he had bigger disagreements with New Line over the direction of the story: "I was trying to make an unconventional horror film. It didn't fit into the algorithm of what they knew they could spend and make money back on based on not offending their standard genre audience."[5] He made mention that the budget was perfectly fine, as well as his desire to make Pennywise more than just the clown.[5] Fukunaga concluded by stating, "We invested years and so much anecdotal storytelling in it. Chase and I both put our childhood in that story. So our biggest fear was they were going to take our script and bastardize it [...] So I'm actually thankful that they are going to rewrite the script. I wouldn't want them to stealing our childhood memories and using that [...] I was honoring King's spirit of it, but I needed to update it. King saw an earlier draft and liked it."[5][6] On Fukunaga's departure, King wrote, "The remake of IT may be dead—or undead—but we'll always have Tim Curry. He's still floating down in the sewers of Derry."[98][99]

Andrés Muschietti (2015–present)

"The way Cary intended to execute the script is something that only he can talk about. I can say my version of It highly emphasizes Pennywise's most terrifying virtue, which is it's ability to materialise into your worse fear; I want to take people in a journey into Pennywise's world through a disturbing, surrealistic and intoxicating experience that will leave nobody at ease."

– Andrés Muschietti, on his version of It[100]

On July 16, 2015, it was announced that Andrés Muschietti was in negotiations to direct It, with New Line beginning a search for a new writer to tailor a script to Muschietti's vision,[101][102] with the announcement also confirming the possible participation of Muschietti's sister, Barbara Muschietti, as a producer, and Richard Brener joining Hamada, Neustadter and Kuykendall to oversee the project.[101] On April 22, 2016, it was indicated that Will Poulter, who was originally tapped to portray Pennywise in Fukunaga's version, had dropped out of the film due to a scheduling conflict and that executives were meeting with actors to portray the antagonist.[103] On April 22, 2016, New Line Cinema set the film for a release of September 8, 2017.[104][105]

On October 30, 2015, Muschietti was interviewed by Variety wherein he spoke about his vision of It, while mentioning Poulter was still in the mix for the role of Pennywise: "[Poulter] would be a great option. For me he is at the top of my list [...]."[106] He confirmed that next summer is the time for them to start shooting. It was decided to shoot It during the summer months to give them the time to work with the children who have the main roles in the first part of the film.[107] Muschietti went on to say that "King described 50s' terror iconography," adding that he feels there is a whole world now to "rediscover, to update." He said there won't be any mummies or werewolves and that the "terrors are going to be a lot more surprising."[108] On February 19, 2016, at the D.I.C.E. Summit 2016 producer Roy Lee confirmed that Fukunaga and Chase Palmer's original script had been rewritten, with Lee remarking, "It will hopefully be shooting later this year. We just got the California tax credit ... [Dauberman] wrote the most recent draft working with [Muscetti], so it's being envisioned as two movies."[109]

On May 5, 2016, in an interview with Collider.com, David Kajganich expressed uncertainty as to whether drafts of his original screenplay would be used by Dauberman and Muschietti,[4] with the writer stating, "We know there's a new director, I don't know myself whether he's going back to any of the previous drafts or writing from scratch. I may not know until the film comes out. I don't know how it works! If you find out let me know."[4]

On June 2, 2016, Jaeden Lieberher was confirmed to be portraying lead protagonist, William Denbrough.[51] On June 2, 2016, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Bill Skarsgård was in final negotiations to star as Pennywise, whose cast will also include Finn Wolfhard, Jack Dylan Grazer, Wyatt Oleff, Chosen Jacobs and Jeremy Ray Taylor.[30] On June 2, 2016, there was a call for 100 background performers, with the background actor call going from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. and by 4 p.m. more than 300 people had gone through; the casting call also asked for a marching band and period cars between 1970 to 1989.[110] On February 18, 2016, The Hollywood Reporter reported that Owen Teague was set to portray Patrick Hocksetter.[63] On June 21, 2016, it was officially announced that Nicholas Hamilton had been cast to play Henry Bowers.[111] On June 21, 2016, Bloody Disgusting reported that Javier Botet was added to the cast shortly before filming commenced.[112][113] On June 22, 2016, Deadline.com reported that Muschietti had chosen actress Sophia Lillis to portray Beverly Marsh.[57] On June 24, 2016, Moviepilot reported that Stephen Bogaert was added to the cast shortly before filming commenced, with Bogaert portraying Al Marsh, the abusive father of Beverly Marsh.[70]

On July 22, 2016, Barbara Muschietti was interviewed by Northumberland News' Karen Longwell, wherein she spoke about the filming locations on It, while mentioning the beauty of Port Hope being one of the reasons as to why it was chosen, while Muschietti added, "We were looking for an idyllic town, one that would be a strong contrast to the story. Port Hope is the kind of place we all wish we had grown up in: long summers riding bicycles, walks by the lake, a lovely main street, charming homes with green lawns, warm people."[66] Muschietti also mentioned that 360 extras from the area, from adults to tiny kids, had been involved.[66]

On August 11, 2016, at The CW TCA presentation for the upcoming series Frequency, producer Dan Lin spoke of the piece's comparsion to Netflix's Stranger Things, with Lee describing It being a "homage to 80s movies", while remarking: "I think a great analogy is actually Stranger Things, and we're seeing it on Netflix right now. It's very much an homage to '80s movies, whether it's classic Stephen King or even Spielberg. Think about Stand by Me (1986) as far as the bonding amongst the kids. But there is a really scary element in Pennywise."[46] Lin continued, speaking of how well the young cast has bonded in these first weeks of shooting. Lin stated, "We clearly had a great dynamic amongst the kids. Really great chemistry is always a challenging thing with a movie like It because you're casting kids who don't have a ton of experience, but it ended up being really natural. Each kid, like a The Goonies (1985) or Stand By Me (1986), has a very specific personality and they're forming the loser's club obviously [...] We've spent a few months getting the kids to bond and now they're going to fight this evil, scary clown.[46]

Filming

Port Hope had undergone a number of changes to transform it into the town of Derry.

Production designer Mara LePere-Schloop went to Bangor, Maine to scope out locations including the Thomas Hill Standpipe, the land running alongside the Kenduskeag Stream that in It is called The Barrens, it was confirmed on March 31, 2015, and the Waterworks on the Penobscot River.[28] LePere-Schloop said during her tour that they were hoping to shoot some scenes in the city and possibly get some aerial shots, though currently the leading locations for the majority of filming for the movie are in Yonkers, New York and in Upstate New York.[28] On May 31, 2016, Third Act Productions was confirmed to have applied to film interior and exterior scenes for It in the municipality of Port Hope, with filming slated for various locations around the municipality from July 11, 2016 up until July 18, 2016.[27] Principal photography was confirmed to have begun in Toronto, with an original shooting schedule occurring from June 27 to September 6, 2016.[114][115][116]

On July 8, 2016, Port Hope had undergone a number of changes to transform it into Derry; Port Hope Municipal hall is now Derry Public Library,[117] The Port Hope Tourism Centre is now a City of Derry office,[117] Ganaraska Financial is now Montgomery Financial,[117] Gould's Shoes store front on Walton Street changed to a butcher shop,[117] The Avanti Hair Design store front changed to Tony's Barber Shop,[117] an empty storefront at 36 Walton Street changed to Reliance Cleaners,[117] Queen Street Tattoo store front changed to Derry Scoop,[117] a statue of Paul Bunyan was erected in Memorial Park,[117] US flags now hang in place of Canadian flags downtown,[117] and Port Hope Capitol Theatre had appeared to be showing Batman (1989) and Lethal Weapon 2 (1989), thus confirming the film's setting of 1989.[117][118][119]

On July 11, 2016, preliminary shooting took place in Port Hope Town Hall, Memorial Park cenotaph, Queen Street between Walton and Robertson streets and the Capitol Theatre.[120] On July 12, 2016, filming occurred between the intersection of Mill and Walton street, Walton Street bridge, and in front and behind 16–22 Walton Street and Port Hope Town Hall.[120] Other shooting locations included Queen Street between Walton and Roberston street, and Memorial Park, on July 13.[120] It was also reported, on July 14, that filming had been set up on the alley between Gould's Shoe's and Avanti Hair Design, and John and Hayward streets.[120] On July 15, 2016, Cavan Street between Highland Drive and Ravine Drive, and Victoria Street South between Trafalgar Street and Sullivan Street.[120] Filming moved to Cavan Street between Highland Drive and Ravine Drive, and Victoria Street South between Trafalgar Street and Sullivan Street on July 15.[120] Filming in Port Hope ended on July 18, at Watson's Guardian Drugs.[120]

Costume design

Pennywise's gray costume was partly inspired by the Renaissance era of clothing.

On August 16, 2016, in an interview with Entertainment Weekly, costume designer Janie Bryant spoke of crafting Pennywise's form-fitting suit and the inspirations to which it drew upon – involving a number of bygone times – among them the Medieval, Renaissance, Elizabethan, and Victorian eras.[134] Bryant explained that the costume incorporates all these otherworldly past lives, while highlighting the point that Pennywise is a clown from a different time.[135] In designing Pennywise's costume, Bryant included a Fortuny pleating, which gives the costume an almost a crepe-like effect,[136] to which Bryant remarked, "It's a different technique than what the Elizabethans would do. It's more organic, it's more sheer. It has a whimsical, floppy quality to it. It's not a direct translation of a ruff or a whisk, which were two of the collars popular during the Elizabethan period."[137]

Bryant played with multiple eras as a way of reflecting Pennywise's immortality and added a "doll-like quality to the costume."[137][138] She furthered this by stating "The pants being short, the high waistline of the jacket, and the fit of the costume is a very important element. It gives the character a child-like quality."[137][139] Bryant spoke of the two puffs off the shoulder, sleeves and again on the bloomers, with her desire to create an "organic, gourd or pumpkin kind of effect", which includes the peplum at the waist, the flared, skirt-like fabric blossoming from below his doublet.[137][140] She explains, "It helps exaggerate certain parts of the body. The costume is very nipped in the waist and with the peplum and bloomers it has an expansive silhouette."[137] The main color of his costume is a dusky gray, but with a few splashes of colour.[137] She concludes the interview by stating, "The pompoms are orange, and then with the trim around the cuffs and the ankles, it's basically a ball fringe that's a combination of orange, red, and cinnamon. It's almost like Pennywise fades into his environment. But there are accents to pull out the definition of the gray silk."[141]

Release

It is scheduled to be released in North America on September 8, 2017.[142]

Marketing

On January 31, 2016, Muschietti, on his Instagram, posted a terrifying sketch that is thought to be the precursor to Pennywise's final look, to celebrate the pre-production getting underway.[143][144][145] Beginning from July 11, 2016, Muschietti posted a variety of missing person posters of children within the Derry area, including Betty Ripsom, Richie Tozier, Paul Greenberg, Jonathan Chan, and Tania McGowan.[146][147][148][149]

Muschietti shared a photo of a missing person poster featuring Richie Tozier. The poster lists all of the character's information, indicating he was last seen on July 4, 1989.

The first official image for It debuted on July 13, 2016, introducing the first look at Skarsgård's Pennywise The Dancing Clown,[150] as well as an interview with Skarsgård, conducted by Anthony Breznican.[151][152] Thomas Freeman of Maxim wrote that "[...] Skarsgard in full, terrifying costume, [...] he's clearly got what it takes to fill King's most macabre, nightmare-inducing creation."[153] Chris Eggertsen of HitFix respone positively stating the image to be "[...] an appropriately macabre look that doesn't deviate too radically from the aesthetic of Curry's Pennywise [...] dare I say, a more creepily seductive look to Skarsgard's version that was absent from Curry's interpretation."[154]

On July 30, 2016, Muschietti released three storyboard images, up until the date of August 22, 2016, with the first featuring Bill Denbrough making a paper boat for his younger brother, George.[155] The second storyboard features Bill leading his bike, nicknamed Silver, across a lawn with the included phrase:[156] "He thrusts his fists against the posts but still insists he sees the ghosts".[157] The third and final storyboard, to which was released, features Bill asleep next to a sketch of Beverly Marsh.[158][159]

On August 16, 2016, Entertainment Weekly released the full costume image of Skarsgård's Pennywise,[137] including an interview with costume designer Janie Bryant.[160][161] JoBlo.com's Damion Damaske was fond of the new design, though was understanding others being dismissive of it. Damaske also stated, "One of the chief complaints is that it looked too automatically scary, and that one of the reasons Pennywise chooses his guise is to trick and lure children."[162] Dave Trumbore of Collider.com noted that "This one's going to divide some folks. It's nowhere near as baggy or colorful as the one Tim Curry [...] donned [...], but the new version certainly seems to have a lot more thought and intent behind its creation."[163] Jonathan Barkan of Bloody Disgusting called the image one of "[...] [drawing] attention and curiosity". Barkan then stated "I don't know if it's morbid curiosity or hopeful wishes but the overall response to his face and makeup seemed to be quite positive!"[164]

Controversy

Main article: 2016 clown sightings

"I suspect it's a kind of low-level hysteria, like Slender Man, or the so-called Bunny Man, who purportedly lurked in Fairfax County, Virginia, wearing a white hood with long ears and attacking people with a hatchet or an axe. The clown furor will pass, as these things do, but it will come back, because under the right circumstances, clowns really can be terrifying."

—Writer Stephen King's reaction to the recurring clown scare phenomenon.[165]

The first reported sighting of people dressed as evil clowns was in Greenville, South Carolina, where a small boy spoke to his mother of a pair of clowns that had attempted to lure him away.[166][167] After such an incident, a number of clowns have since been spotted in various American states including Florida, New York, Wisconsin and Kentucky, and subsequently in other Western countries, from August 2016.[168][169][170][171][172] By October 2016, in the wake of hundreds of "clown sightings" across the United States and Canada, the phenomenon had spread from North America to Europe, Australasia and Latin America.[173][174][175]

Some explanations for the 2016 clown sightings phenomenon hypothesize that at least some of the sightings are part of a viral marketing campaign, possibly for Rob Zombie's film, 31 (2016).[176] Greenville police chief Ken Miller claimed to reporters that investigators are unsure as to whether the sightings have any connection with Zombie's 31,[177] whether it was one or more people looking for "kicks", or something more sinister.[178]

A spokesperson for New Line Cinema released a statement acknowledging that "New Line is absolutely not involved in the rash of clown sightings."[179]

Future

On February 16, 2016, producer Roy Lee, in an interview with Collider.com, mentioned the final film of the planned It duology, remarking, "[...] making another movie from the point of view of the adults, that could potentially then be cut together like the novel. But it's gonna be a really fun way of making this movie."[2] Lee also mentions that: "[Dauberman] wrote the most recent draft working with [Muschietti], so it's being envisioned as two movies."[2]

  1. ↑ In Entertainment Weekly, Rolling Stone, Collider.com, and Variety articles,[3][4][5][6] Fukunaga, Palmer and Kajganich are also given screenplay credits for It, but until New Line makes a press release, the screenplay credits included MUST remain, as it is still unclear whether Muschietti and Doberman's screenplay was based in any part on prior drafts.</ref>

Kit also states that, "New Line will now take the lead on horror, bringing the company back to one of its roots." thus Warner Bros. post-2010 distribution of all New Line films has no bearing in this case.
