It is an upcoming 2017 American supernatural horror film and an adaptation of Stephen King's 1986 novel of the same name. The film tells the story of seven children as they are terrorized by the eponymous being, which exploits the fears and phobias of its victims in order to disguise itself while hunting its prey. "It" primarily appears in the form of a clown in order to attract its preferred prey of young children.It deals with themes that eventually became King staples: the power of memory, childhood trauma, and the ugliness lurking behind a façade of traditional small-town values.
The film is directed by Andrés Muschietti and written by Chase Palmer, Cary Fukunaga and Gary Dauberman, and stars Bill Skarsgård as Pennywise The Dancing Clown and Jaeden Lieberher as Bill Denbrough, with Jeremy Ray Taylor, Sophia Lillis, Finn Wolfhard, Wyatt Oleff, Chosen Jacobs, Jack Dylan Grazer, and Nicholas Hamilton in supporting roles.Principal photography began in Toronto, Canada on June 27, 2016, and ended on September 21. The locations being used for It are in the municipality of Port Hope and Oshawa, Ontario, as well as Riverdale, Toronto.
It is scheduled to be released on September 8, 2017.
When children begin to disappear in the town of Derry, Maine, a group of young kids are faced with their biggest fears when they square off against an evil clown named Pennywise, whose history of murder and violence dates back for centuries.
