Bill Skarsgård stars as Pennywise the clown in this adaptation of Stephen King's novel directed by Andrés Muschietti. In Derry, Maine, in the late 1980s, a group of seven childhood friends, known as The Losers Club, unite to combat a mysterious threat which their cursed town had thought was long since buried. After his little brother Georgie (Jackson Robert Scott) disappears, along with several more of the town's youngsters, Bill Denbrough (Jaeden Liberher) gathers his group of outsider friends together to search for clues.

Their quest eventually leads them to fight back against the shape-shifting, supernatural predator lurking in the shadows of their town and preying on children's innermost fears, manifesting itself as a killer clown called Pennywise.
