Comparing the New It to the Original


The new trailers indicate that Pennywise isn't the only one to get a makeover.

Update: With the second It trailer now online, we've added several more slides that break down more similarities between the original mini-series and the new film based on the Stephen King classic.

This is the second time Hollywood has adapted Stephen King's beloved 1986 novel, after the 1990 TV miniseries, and the remake looks to be even more terrifying than the original.

Despite the change from small screen to big, and the gap of 27 years, we have noticed some pretty direct similarities between the two versions in the new trailers. Check out our slideshow comparison below (drag the slider between images) to see what's changed and what's remained the same in this tale about a demonic clown terrorizing a band of heroic children.

It is directed by Andrés Muschietti (Mama) with the screenplay by Chase Palmer, Cary Fukunaga and Gary Dauberman. The story will be based on King's novel and follows the small town of Derry, Maine, whose children suddenly begin to mysteriously disappear. A group of young kids -- the Loser's Club -- find themselves going up against the evil clown Pennywise, who's been murdering and kidnapping children for centuries.

Bill Skarsgård plays Pennywise, while the rest of the cast includes Jaeden Lieberher (Midnight Special), Jeremy Ray Taylor (Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip), Sophia Lillis (37), Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things), Wyatt Oleff (Guardians of the Galaxy), Chosen Jacobs (Cops and Robbers), Jack Dylan Grazer (Tales of Halloween) and Nicholas Hamilton (Captain Fantastic). The film will be released in September 2017.
