Convinced\u00a0she can bring him back and now wearing the clown costume herself, it&#8217;s clear that the next couple of weeks are going to take us to some twisted places.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A first look at the penultimate episode, &#8220;The Black Spot,&#8221; shows the real Pennywise the Dancing Clown on stage. Later, he takes a young clown under his wing, with the prevailing theory being that he could be &#8220;It,&#8221; hoping to learn how it can use the role of &#8220;clown&#8221; to lure in the children it feasts on.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, many of you will remember Mrs.\u00a0Kersh from It: Chapter Two, though that was seemingly &#8220;It&#8221; taking on her form. Clearly, Pennywise has a noteworthy link\u00a0to this family that we can expect\u00a0to be explored in the show&#8217;s final couple of episodes.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During a recent interview with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/collider.com\/it-welcome-to-derry-episode-6-clara-stack-matilda-lawler-amanda-christine-pennywise-interview\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Collider<\/a>\u00a0(via <a href=\"https:\/\/fearhq.com\/television\/it-welcome-to-derry-episode-7-promo-puts-the-spotlight-on-the-real-pennywise-the-dancing-clown-a9832\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">FearHQ.com<\/a>),\u00a0Clara Stack (Lilly Bainbridge), Amanda Christine (Ronnie Grogan),\u00a0and Matilda Lawler (Marge Truman) dropped some hints about It: Welcome to Derry&#8217;s finale.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Honestly, reading the scripts, it was just shock after shock after shock,&#8221; Stack said. &#8220;There are so many plot twists within this series that I think are really going to shock the audience. They\u2019re really relevant to the plot and really surprising. And there are so many incredible, horrific and tense sequences throughout this series. I\u00a0think people watching are just going to be really terrified and really shocked.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Lawler added, &#8220;I\u2019m excited for people to see the ways that the last few episodes of the series go further into the origins of the entity and connect to both the movies more deeply,&#8221; leading Christine to tease, &#8220;The last episodes dive into the origin story, and they get into the books and the movies. So, just stay tuned for everything to come.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Set in the world of Stephen King&#8217;s\u00a0It\u00a0universe,\u00a0It: Welcome to Derry\u00a0is based on King&#8217;s\u00a0It\u00a0novel and expands the vision established by filmmaker Andy Muschietti in the feature films\u00a0It\u00a0and\u00a0It\u00a0Chapter Two.<\/p>\n<p>The cast is led by Taylour Paige, Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, James Remar, Stephen Rider, Madeleine Stowe, Rudy Mancuso, and Bill Skarsg\u00e5rd.<\/p>\n<p>The series, from Warner Bros.
