This September, Halloween came early.

Any Stephen King work is a gem and “It” is probably one of his most popular ones so it’s not surprising that the movie remake from the miniseries of the novel is kicking in the box office. If you’re still wondering whether a run to the cinema is worth it, you should probably get to know the man behind Pennywise the Dancing Clown - Bill Skarsgård.

Entertainment magazine Variety did an interview with Skarsgard, and here the green-eyed actor mentioned how getting into the character of Pennywise was a lot of hard work, especially given the fact that it was Tim Curry who first played the part of the terrifying clown.
