The series boasts a solid cast, including Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, James Remar, Stephen Rider, Madeleine Stowe, Rudy Mancuso, and Bill Skarsgård, who’s reprising his terrifying role as Pennywise.
Behind the scenes, heavyweights like Brad Caleb Kane, Shelley Meals, Roy Lee, and Dan Lin join the Muschiettis and Fuchs as executive producers, ensuring the series stays true to the dark, thrilling energy fans expect.
