After nineteen years as a made-for-TV movie, Stephen King’s It is being brought back to life by Warner Bros. Based on one of the scariest of King’s many scary novels, It chronicles a group of kids who call themselves the Losers Club in 1958 and encounter a child-murdering clown — the terrifying Pennywise, or It, or Robert Gray. Cut to 1985, and the Losers Club is now a group of adults faced with the same clown they defeated 27 years ago. In the new adaptation, which will be written by Dave Kajganich (The Invasion, Creek), the time frame will be present day. Hopefully Pennywise will be just as horrifying as Tim Curry played him.
