However, even the highest-grossing R-rated film of all time is not safe from the Honest Trailer treatment, and its time has come.
Among the details that were changed from the novel is the time setting, with the movie being set in the ’80s instead of the ’50s.
Screen Junkies asked their viewers to vote for the 2017 films they wanted to see an honest trailer for, and Muschietti’s adaptation of IT came in third place.
Adapting a novel as rich as IT – which spans over 1000 pages – is not an easy task, so naturally a lot of details were left out of the film.
