HBO Max is going to develop an "It" prequel series, called "Welcome to Derry".
It's going to take place in the '60s and will lead up to the events of the 2017 movie, "It: Chapter One" . . . which is set in 1989. It'll include the origin story of both the town and Pennywise the Dancing Clown. (Please bring back Bill Skarsgard!)
The director of the two "It" movies is going to executive produce. But no word if Stephen King will be involved in any way.
