Here's a logline for the series per HBO:
'Set in the world of Stephen King's IT universe, IT: Welcome to Derry is based on King's IT novel and expands the vision established by filmmaker Andy Muschietti in the feature films IT and IT Chapter Two .'
Admittedly, that's not much to go on, but it's abundantly clear that the Powers That Be have quite a few narrative surprises up their sleeves. I love a bit of mystery myself. The Cast and Crew
The series stars Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, James Remar, Stephen Rider, Madeleine Stowe, Rudy Mancuso and Bill Skarsgård. Andy and Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs serve as developers, while Fuchs is a co-showrunner alongside Brad Caleb Kane. Skarsgård executive produces with Fuchs, the Muschiettis and Kane. Fuchs penned the teleplay for the first episode, and Andy Muschietti will be at the helm as director for multiple episodes.

The teaser does an excellent job of, well, teasing what's to come. We don't get the whole story arc; instead, said teaser ramps up anticipation and sprinkles in horror elements to whet our appetites until the six-episode series premieres.
IT: Welcome to Derry will creep onto our screens this fall on HBO Max (after the streamer reverts to its original name this summer). Before you go, check out the official teaser below.
