Apparently we shouldn’t be counting Pennywise the Clown out just yet as Bloody Disgusting is reporting that “a source from the inside is telling [them] that the project is heading back to Warner Bros. (it was shifted to New Line during budget cuts) and that It will now be filming in New York.”
They go on to report that Warner Bros. is currently meeting with candidates and expects to sign a new director in the coming weeks. The studio will move forward with the existing It scripts and New York locations for filming later this year. It will be two separate films, one tackling the protagonists as children and the second focusing on them as adults.

Will Poulter was cast to play the villainous clown Pennywise by departing “True Detective” director Cary Fukunaga, and it’s unclear whether or not that casting stands. Stay tuned.
