'It: Welcome to Derry' creator gives exciting update about upcoming season

It: Welcome to Derry creator Andy Muschietti has shared an exciting update about the upcoming season.

In a new interview with Deadline, the 52-year-old filmmaker revealed that he and his team are currently working on season two of the horror series.

“It’s 1935 – we’re now working on it, and it’s so much fun," Andy told the outlet. "For the ones of you who read the books, probably the Bradley Gang sounds familiar. The Bradley Gang was a gang of bank robbers that — not accidentally, but they were on their way somewhere and they stopped in Derry to buy some ammo and something horrible happens."

He further said, “The Bradley Gang is based on the Brady Gang, which is a real-life gang of robbers that were executed in the streets of Bangor, Maine. And now we’re not creating the event that the big paroxysm of violence in this case will be the massacre of a Bradley gang."

“There’s like three big events in Welcome to Derry Season 1 … and Season 3 would be the explosion of the Kitchener Iron Works, which is a big explosion during an Easter egg hunt where a hundred kids lost their lives," continued Andy.

“It’s always there f*cking around, so that much I can tell you," he elaborated. “It’s fascinating because the thing that is so much fun in this stage of development is that we’re facing an era which is the Depression Era that changes dramatically the setup of things."

"There’s no suburban comfort — the trope of the kids that live in suburbia and they ride their bikes and suddenly one of them disappears is nothing like this. This is in 1935. It’s a very dire situation. People are very poor. They’re struggling to survive, so the setup will be very different," added the filmmaker.

However, the release date of the upcoming season has not been disclosed yet.
