Filming wraps on big screen adaptation of Stephen King’s It

September 24, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Director Andy Muschietti (Mama) has announced that filming has wrapped on the big screen adaptation of Stephen King’s horror classic It, with the filmmaker taking to Instagram to share a photo of himself alongside the young stars who make up the Losers Club…

Meanwhile, producer Barbara Muschietti also marked the occasion with her own image, opting instead for a rather creepy Pennywise-style Jack-in-the-Box…

And here’s a behind-the-scenes shot offering a brief glimpse of Pennywise…

It is set for release on September 8th, 2017, and sees Bill Skarsgard (Hemlock Grove) starring as Pennywise alongside Jaeden Lieberher (St. Vincent), Finn Wolfhard (Stranger Things), Jack Dylan Grazer (Tales of Halloween), Wyatt Oleff (Guardians of the Galaxy), Chosen Jacobs (Cops and Robbers), Jeremy Ray Taylor (Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Road Chip), Owen Teague (Bloodline), Sophia Lillis (A Midsummer Night’s Dream) and Nicholas Hamilton (Captain Fantastic).
