A new documentary is released next month which goes behind the scenes of the IT mini-series that starred Tim Curry as Pennywise the clown.
Pennywise: The Story of It will receive its world premiere on Oct. 15 at The Sitges International Fantastic Film Festival of Catalonia, co-directed by John Campopiano and Christopher Griffiths. It includes interviews with Tim Curry, Seth Green, Richard Thomas, Tim Reid, Richard Masur, Emily Perkins, Tommy Lee Wallace, Larry D. Cohen, Bart Mixon and Victoria Burrows alongside King scholars and a real working clown.
“We live in an era where adaptations of Stephen King’s work have never been more prolific and culturally relevant,” Campopiano told Variety. “From the hugely successful 2017 and 2019 theatrical remakes of ‘It’ and ‘Pet Sematary,’ the widely lauded sequel to ‘The Shining,’ ‘Doctor Sleep,’ TV series ‘Castle Rock,’ and the upcoming theatrical remake of his 1979 TV miniseries, ‘Salem’s Lot’ – this documentary is arriving at precisely the ideal moment.”

That’s interesting and something I look forward to watch. I want to see how they decided to make that terrible spider ending. Of course, I do believe it is better than the It Chapter 2 spider ending.
