HBO Max‘s It prequel series Welcome To Derry has scored its Pennywise – and it’s a returning Bill Skarsgård.

Skarsgård, who famously donned the clown makeup in 2017’s It and 2019’s It: Chapter Two, has been confirmed to reprise his role as the creepy intergalactic clown-looking creature known as Pennywise for the upcoming TV prequel series.

...

Skarsgård previously said in March 2023 that he wasn’t involved in the prequel series, though he left the door open for a future return.

Quite true, but even with the roles in John Wick, it keeps him in the "sadist/abuser" role in a film. Antagonist vs. Protagonist.

I don't have any answers either, otherwise I'd rule Hollywood … still, I'd hate to see him get put in that corner for good.
