If you’re still holding out hope that the upcoming movie adaptation of Stephen King‘s horror tale It will still be awesome despite the very rocky road it has traveled, then you will no doubt be interested in seeing the first official image of the new Pennywise the Clown.

Pennywise is the best known form that It—an evil being that torments children by taking on the forms of their greatest fears—takes on. Tim Curry memorably played the character in the ’90s TV movie adaptation of the book. A much younger actor, 25-year-old Bill Skarsgard, was cast to take on the character in this latest adaptation.

Get your first peek at the new Pennywise the Dancing Clown in the image below.

It’s been just a little over one year since True Detective season one and Beasts of No Nation director Cary Fukunaga walked away from the movie adaptation of Stephen King‘s It, which he had been developing for multiple years and fans seemed extremely excited about, for reasons that made the departure all the more painful.

When this happened it sounded like the movie might be dead, but then just a couple of short months later New Line hired Mama director Andy Muschietti to replace Fukunaga and all was on track again. When Muschietti was hired it was unclear if Will Poulter, who had been cast just before Fukunaga’s exit, would still be playing Pennywise. As it turns out, no, he isn’t. A new actor has now been cast in the role made famous by Tim Curry’s terrifying performance in the two-part TV movie adaptation in 1990.
