Pennywise the Dancing Clown is the titular main protagonist of the 2026 film It Part 1 and the titular main protagonist of the upcoming film It Part 2, It Part Three and I Love Derry.
It, like the original novel counterpart, is an ancient supernatural curse who takes the form of one's worst fears (particularly children) before feeding on them. Having terrorized the Earth for generations, it's reign of terror soon comes to an end the moment it kills Georgie Denbrough, becoming the archenemy of his older brother Bill Denbrough, who seeks to avenge Georgie's death by killing It at all costs with assistance from his friends, thus is the reason for the Losers Club's formation in the first place.
In its Pennywise form, it was portrayed by Will Poulter.

Physical appearance[]
In contrast to his original novel counterpart, this version of It in the movie adaptation is significantly altered. In it's Pennywise form, it instead has a silver suit similar to Italian opera clowns and red hair. The nose is not genuine, but painted red. Most often, it's eyes are orange, but it can change them to appear more familiar. They also are often looking in different directions. Due to being a shapeshifter, It's appearance varies as it takes on the form of other people's greatest fears in the film.
