'It' Prequel Series 'Welcome to Derry' Drops New Trailer
Yara Sameh 'It' prequel series, 'Welcome to Derry', is bringing everyone's favorite killer clown to the small screen later this year. The second teaser for the upcoming HBO series was unveiled Saturday night at a spooky late-night San Diego Comic-Con panel before it was released online Sunday. In the clip, viewers catch a glimpse of the panic that ensues as a nefarious force begins to creep its way into Derry, and children start disappearing. The footage primarily focuses on Taylour Paige, who plays a young woman who has just moved to Derry with her husband, when things start to go awry in the small town. Despite Bill Skarsgård's Pennywise briefly appearing at the end, his presence is felt throughout. Taking place in the world of Stephen King's IT universe, "Welcome to Derry" expands the vision established by filmmaker Andy Muschietti in the feature films, which amassed a combined $1.17 billion worldwide. Set 27 years before the events of the two 'It' movies, the show begins in the 1960s, in the time leading up to the events of 2017's 'It: Part One'. As the story goes, the murderous entity It feeds on children before hibernating for 27 years, so the show follows It's previous killing spree before the events of the 'It' films. 'Welcome to Derry' cast also includes Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, James Remar, Stephen Rider, Madeleine Stowe, and Rudy Mancuso. 'This is a book we love a lot, and we felt that there was still a lot of story to be covered,' Andy Muschietti and his sister and producing partner Barbara Muschietti said in a previous statement. 'It's so rich with characters and events, we thought we would do justice to the book and the fans by going back into this world. Specifically, we are telling the stories of the interludes, writings by Mike Hanlon based on his investigation that includes interviews he conducts with the older people in the town. In Welcome to Derry, we touch on the usual themes that were talked about in the movie — friendship, loss, the power of unified belief — but this story focuses also on the use of fear as a weapon, which is one of the things that is also relevant to our times.' 'Welcome to Derry' is produced by HBO and Warner Bros. Television, with a story by Andy Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs. They executive produce alongside Brad Caleb Kane, David Coatsworth, Bill Skarsgård, Shelley Meals, Roy Lee, and Dan Lin. Fuchs, who wrote the teleplay for the first episode, is a co-showrunner with Kane. The series was developed for television by "It" filmmakers Andy Muschietti and Barbara Muschietti, as well as Jason Fuchs. Muschietti, who directed 'It: Part One' and 2019's 'It: Part Two', is attached to executive produce the series along with Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs. Fuchs is writing the first episode of the series, based on a story by him and the Muschiettis. Andy will also direct multiple episodes, including the first. Fuchs and Brad Caleb Kane serve as co-showrunners and executive producers, with the Muschiettis also executive producing via their Double Dream production company. Shelley Meals, Roy Lee, and Dan Lin also executive produce. The series is produced by HBO Max and Warner Bros. Television. 'It' was previously adapted into a two-part miniseries for ABC back in 1990, featuring Tim Curry as Pennywise. 'Welcome to Derry' will debut on HBO and will be available to stream on HBO Max in October. read more New Tourism Route To Launch in Old Cairo Ahmed El Sakka-Led Play 'Sayidati Al Jamila' to Be Staged in KSA on Dec. 6 Mandy Moore Joins Season 2 of "Dr. Death" Anthology Series Don't Miss These Movies at 44th Cairo Int'l Film Festival Today Amr Diab to Headline KSA's MDLBEAST Soundstorm 2022 Festival Arts & Culture Mai Omar Stuns in Latest Instagram Photos Arts & Culture "The Flash" to End with Season 9 Arts & Culture Ministry of Culture Organizes four day Children's Film Festival Arts & Culture Canadian PM wishes Muslims Eid-al-Adha News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results News "Tensions Escalate: Iran Probes Allegations of Indian Tech Collaboration with Israeli Intelligence" Arts & Culture Hawass Foundation Launches 1st Course to Teach Ancient Egyptian Language
