Bill Scarsgard returned to Derry, Maine to terrorize some children in "IT: Welcome to Deri", the upcoming series of recent film adaptations of "IT" by Steven King that promises to deliver not only another daunting Proper Story of Army Army Army The Armen of Scargord, Clown.

This is a great news for everyone who was scared of the mind back in 2017 when Scarsgard first played Penichand because he was a big part of why that film was so successful. It seems obvious that Scarsgard will repeat his role in the TV show, as it is the only piece of connective tissue between the Prequel series and the original story, but the actor initially hesitated to return.

In the November 2025 edition of SFX magazineCo-creator and executive producer Andy Mushetti shared that Scarsgard fought with a return to Derry. "I think he was a little hesitant to play it again because he was something he did in the past," Andy Mushetti explained. "Also, at that moment, when we started talking about the series as something that was real and tangible, he played very very dark characters and he was a little hesitation to get into it again." He explained: "Because, obviously, for someone who understands his work and his art as seriously as him, we need to live in the head of those characters for a long time."

Mushetti continued: "So he was a little hesitant at the beginning - and then something changed ... I suppose we started again, we went into it and talked about all the virtues of this new story and he decided to do it."

It is understood that Scarsgard would doubt Penny's re -play, as he was not only given many negative roles in the years of "IT", but specifically given that Scarsgard as well. He recently played another huge movie monster in Count Orlock in "Nosferatu".

According to Mushietti's sister, Barbara, who co-created the executive play, explained that they discussed the addition of much more Bob Gray's research in the films "IT" and later "Welcome to Derry". According to the producer, "we even talked about making a third movie about Bob Gray before he was taken over by him and becoming a penichand."

We do not know much about it, except that is an interdimensional being that is billions of years and is probably visiting other planets before arriving on Earth. Although we do not expect to learn much more about the subject in Deri, "we seem to learn more about the man he took when he became a penichent. We have learned about Bob Gray in" Chapter Two ", a human clown who has a striking resemblance to a penny without makeup, but not at least.

As for Scarsgard, the actor spoke in the past about How much penichen has changed his life, How much he put in the role and how scared his child co-stars. It is understandable not to want to repeat. However, "that" would not be the same without Scarsgard, so it is great news that he was convinced to return to the end.
