The upcoming 'Welcome to Derry' series will delve into Pennywise's history by focusing on catastrophic events that occur at the beginning of each of his hibernation cycles. The series will unfold in reverse chronological order, starting with 1962 and going back to 1908, showcasing Pennywise's impact across different eras.
“It’s a story that’s based on the interludes of the book. The interludes are basically chapters that reflect Mike Hanlon’s research,” Muschietti stated, adding, “So they talk about catastrophic events from the past, like the fire in the Black Spot, the massacre of the Bradley Gang, a gang of bank robbers in the ’30s, and the explosion of the Kitchener Ironworks.
Given the long history of Pennywise haunting the citizens of Derry, there is certainly ample room for Welcome to Derry to showcase his monstrous history in these radically separate 20th-century time periods.
