Bill Skarsgård discusses the possibility of reprising his role as Pennywise in the ‘IT’ series. The first modern ‘IT’ film, released in 2017, introduced Skarsgård’s chilling portrayal of the clown. This was followed by ‘It Chapter Two’ in 2019, featuring a strong cast including Jessica Chastain, James McAvoy, and Bill Hader.
According to Esquire, Skarsgård addresses speculation about his return for the ‘IT’ prequel, ‘Welcome To Derry’. While in Toronto, where both ‘IT’ films were shot and director Andy Muschietti was also present, Skarsgård was questioned about his potential involvement. His response, “I don’t want to spoil it. Maybe,” hints at a possible return.
