After several years spent trying to get the project off the ground, Warner Bros’ theatrical re-adaptation of Stephen King’s It finally entered production late last month.
The TV miniseries altered the werewolf bit into a solo encounter for Richie in the basement of the school, while the leper was removed entirely.
While few would argue that It (1990) was flawless, Tim Curry’s performance as the often affably sadistic child-eating clown Pennywise has become the stuff of pop culture legend.
The dilapidated dwelling played host to several key scenes in the novel, including a werewolf encounter had by Richie and Bill, and Eddie being accosted by a horrifying leper.
