Warner Bros. Discovery has released a sizzle reel of its upcoming shows for 2024 and beyond, with looks at the new True Detective, Colin Farrell's The Penguin series, season 2 of House of the Dragon, and more. It also offers a first look at the It prequel series, tentatively titled Welcome to Derry.
The series was developed by It and It Chapter Two director Andy Muschietti, with sister and It producer Barbara Muschietti and Wonder Woman writer Jason Fuchs. The show will star Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, Taylour Paige, James Remar, Stephen Rider, and Madeleine Stowe. Andy will also reportedly direct multiple episodes of the series.
"As teenagers, we took turns reading chapters of Stephen King's It until the thick paperback fell to pieces," the Muschietti siblings said in a statement when the show was announced in February. "It is an epic story that contains multitudes, far beyond what we could explore in our It movies. We can't wait to share the depths of Steve's novel, in all its heart, humor, humanity, and horror."
