anticipation for this film went up like
a balloon
after audiences got their first look at
Pennywise the clown
so which shouldn’t have come as a
surprise that people were eager to watch
the teaser trailer when it debuted in

24 hours online the teaser trailer
posted to YouTube earned 197 million

Andy mushi Eddie generated even more
buzz for his movie via Instagram on June

red balloons in his office indicating
the pre-production had wrapped up a
couple of days later he shared a photo
of a director’s chair letting his
followers know that principal
photography had started in Toronto since
then woosh Yeti has regularly released
behind the scenes pictures showcasing
the film’s cast sets and props not to
mention some haunting concept art he
even uploaded a series of missing person
posters featuring children from Derry
and this has got to be the creepiest
photo album ever
now the second creepiest wall number 8
the number 27 has a strange tie to the
movie there’s going to say thank you
you know how the number 237 has a weird
connection to Stanley Kubrick’s
interpretation of the shining well the
number 27 is oddly linked to this
Stephen King story for starters in the
original novel it’s mentioned that
Pennywise resurfaces every 27 years
jonathan brandis who played bill in the
1990 miniseries tragically committed
suicide at age 27 this remake is coming
out in 2017 27 years after its
predecessor bill skarsgård who plays
penny wise in this version turned 27 one
month before the film’s release on
September 8 2017 speaking of which if
you add all the numbers in this release
date together guess what number you get
a coincidence
yeah probably
number seven it was in development for
seven years before filming it’s been a
long trip to the big screen for this
adaptation the project initially got off
the ground in 2009 with director cary
fukunaga on board best known for his
Emmy winning work on true detective
Fukunaga remained at the movies helm
until he dropped out in 2015 according
to Fukunaga his exit stemmed from
creative differences with new line he
reportedly wanted to take an
unconventional approach to the story and
make Pennywise quote more than just the
clown while Fukunaga is still getting a
screenwriting credit for his
contributions on grass machete of mama
ultimately took over as the film’s
director shooting finally commenced in
2016 7 years after development started
number 6 the bullies are much nicer in
real life you’re dead Fat Boy played by
Nicolas Hamilton Henry Bowers torments
the losers Club along with his fellow
troublemakers which includes Logan
Thompson as Vic Chris Jake sim is belch
Huggins and Owen Teague as Patrick Hawks
deader as sadistic as these bullies can
be the actors portraying them are
actually quite friendly behind the
scenes on social media the Bowers gang
and the losers Club can be seen piling
around in a variety of photos during an
interview Hamilton noted that it was fun
getting to play such a psychotic
character he also thanked his co-stars
for being so tolerant as this role
required him to terrorize the hell out
of them when the cameras were rolling
number five the duffer brothers almost
directed before cary fukunaga entered
the equation Matt and Ross defer asked
Warner Brothers about directing an it
movie the studio turned them down
because they reportedly weren’t quote
established filmmakers as one door
closed however another opened the duffer
brothers were subsequently inspired to
create the Netflix original series
stranger things which shares a few
parallels to it both take place in a
small town centering on a group of young
misfits that encounter a supernatural
entity on top of all that Finn wolfhard
who broke
to fame as Mike wheeler would go on to
land the role of Richie Tozier how many
kids can say they’ve confronted a killer
clown and a demagogue on our chairs
coming in ah it’s great water what the
hell is great water
it’s basically piss and shit so I’m just
telling you number four it could have
been rated nc-17 after cary fukunaga
left the project his original script
went through some significant rewrites
particularly concerning the sexual
content one notable scene that
reportedly didn’t make the cut feature
Beverly Marcia’s father trying to rape
her
there were also supposedly scenes where
Henry Bowers molest sash sheep and
masturbates all over a birthday cake had
these disturbing moments been included
there’s little doubt that it would have
joined the exclusive nc-17 Club the MPAA
might have let the horror violence and
language slide but graphic sexual acts
tend to push them over the edge
especially when it involves minors I’m
just gonna pretend it isn’t happening
like everyone else in this town
number three bill skarsgård didn’t meet
the kids until he appeared on set with
them although bill skarsgård was
present for much of this film’s
production andres muschietti decided to
keep him away from the young cast when
shooting began skarsgård didn’t even
start filming until about halfway
through principal photography when the
kids finally met skarsgård it was on
set during a scene the director felt
that this would help build a genuine
sense of terror his methods paid off as
the kids were reportedly surprised to
discover just how terrifying skarsgård
was the actor playing seven-year-old
Georgie in particular had quite a scare
when he saw penny wise in a storm drain
of course after getting past the
menacing makeup the children found that
bill is generally a pretty good guy
number two it’ll likely have a second
part
the it miniseries was split into two
parts with the first half primarily
focusing on the losers club as kids in
the second reuniting them as adults the
filmmakers behind the movie have a
similar formula in mind this 2017 movie
alternatively known as it part 1 the
losers Club takes place in 1989 when our
young heroes first encounter penny wise
if the film proves successful it will
likely get a sequel set thirty years
down the line this follow-up would
mainly Center on the grown-up cast but
still include flashbacks to their
childhood seeing as how the source
material is over 1,000 pages long we’re
not sure how they could have squeezed
everything into one movie number one
it’ll be more hardcore than the original
miniseries since the original miniseries
was made for network television it had
to tone down some of the more disturbing
elements of King’s novel this remake
won’t shy away from the darker material
though doing the source material justice
with an R rating the film will
reportedly include several subplots that
didn’t make it into the mini series such
as Eddie Cass brac meeting the leper and
Henry Bowers relationship with Patrick
Hawke stutter
although the violence and sexual
undertones are being taken up a notch
the film will still probably draw a line
somewhere for example it’s hard to
imagine the book’s child orgy scene
making the cut
