This year’s big screen adaptation of IT will feature one major change to the Stephen King story’s iconic opening prologue.
This year promises to be an eventful one for Stephen King fans everywhere too, with multiple TV adaptations of the author’s work in development right now, and with his beloved Dark Tower book series finally set to receive their long-awaited big screen adaptation this year.
And this twist on George Denbrough’s murder could very well be just a number of creative tweaks that ultimately decides whether or not IT sinks or swims.
It’ll be interesting to see how Stephen King fans react to this change, especially since King’s opening to IT is one of the more iconic literary moments in the author’s long and storied career.
