‘It’ Director on Tackling Two R-Rated Movies and Why He Picked Bill Skarsgard for Pennywise
“It,” Stephen King’s sprawling novel about a band of friends confronted with a child-eating clown, is one of the horror master’s most terrifying works.
It’s a fairytale Hollywood plot twist for the Argentine native, who began his career as a production assistant in Buenos Aires in 1996 and didn’t make his first feature until he was 39, when he co-wrote and directed the 2013 low-budget horror hit “Mama,” starring Jessica Chastain. First made famous onscreen by Tim Curry in the 1990 miniseries adaptation of Stephen King’s tome, the interdimensional being is many things, but funny isn’t one of them.
Director Andrés Muschietti would appear to disagree, considering the caption to a drawing of Pennywise he’s shared on Instagram: “And here a little sketch i drew for pennywise’s ‘killmouth’ , one of the comedic highlights of the film.”
Muschietti may be laughing, but most who saw “It” weren’t — at least not during the scene itself.
Muschietti took a break from working on the picture to talk about directing a cast of teenagers, remaining true to the spirit of King’s novel and...

‘It’ Remake Trailer Released
Published by FrightFind On March 29, 2017Leave a response
After a series of pics from director Andres Muschietti (@andy_muschietti on Instagram) showing a colorful balloon filled countdown, the first official trailer for the highly anticipated IT remake is here!
The IT: Part 1 Trailer
While a horror classic like IT leaves some awfully big clown sized shoes to fill, horror master Stephen King has given the film his blessing, tweeting the following just this past month:
Planned as a two part release, IT: Part 1 -The Losers’ Club will focus on everyone’s favorite Derry, Maine school children and their nightmare inducing nemesis, Pennywise the clown.
Avail yourself of the spooky sketch below.
The actual drawing is composed of two panels, the first of which shows Pennywise sniffing Georgie’s arm moments after the ill-fated boy has stuck it into the storm drain where the evil clown has lured him.
He’s executive producer of the Netflix supernatural series “Locke & Key” and, in January 2020, signed on to direct a remake of the 1981 werewolf movie “The Howling” for the streamer. And while the sequel hasn’t nabbed a green light quite yet, if the movie lives up to the trailer we’re sure to see the Derry children back as adults soon.
The Cast of IT
The film has a notable cast, including Megan Charpentier and Javier Botet of Guillermo Del Toro’s horror hit Mama (as Gretta and The Leper respectively), Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard as Richie “Trashmouth” Trozier, and Jaeden Leiberher of St.
Vincent fame as “Stuttering Bill” Denbrough, leader of The Losers’ Club.
But it is perhaps the choice of Bill Skarsgard as the shape shifting Pennywise that has everyone most excited…and horrified. Director Andres Muschietti, who first turned heads with 2013’s “Mama,” has been tasked with turning the doorstop of a book into two films.
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.”
After viewing the trailer ourselves, it’s obvious Skarsgard has kept his monstrous momentum up and Lin isn’t the only one “freaked out” by his performance.
Then he opens his mouth, revealing a frightening number of giant teeth, and prepares to seize down on his victim. But don’t just take our word for it, watch the first official IT trailer for yourself.
IT is scheduled to hit theaters September 8, 2017.
