Meanwhile, the film’s director Andrés Muschietti appears to be counting down to the release of a trailer on Instagram. The trailer was recently shown at the SXSW Film Festival and reportedly left audience members screaming.
The R-rated film adaptation of King’s 1986 novel is set for release on September 8 this year. Bill Skarsgård stars as Pennywise, following in the footsteps of Tim Curry, who famously portrayed the creepy clown in a popular 1990 TV miniseries.
Mama‘s Andrés Muschietti is directing from a script co-written by True Detective and Beasts Of No Nation film-maker Cary Fukunaga.
On of the film’s producers, Seth Grahame-Smith, recently revealed that Stephen King has given the remake his approval.
The film’s cast also includes Stranger Things actor Finn Wolfhard, who is playing Richie Tozier, a member of the so-called ‘Losers Club’. The first photo of Bill Skarsgård in character as Pennywise the clown was released last summer.
