It sounds as though It: Welcome to Derry season 2 will be even bloodier and more brutal than the first season, as co-creator and showrunner Andy Muschietti confirms the show will embrace the dark 1930s era it is set in.
The new season will take place in 1935, which we already knew, as IT the clown returns to Derry every 27 years. However, unlike Stephen King's original novel, which differs in timeline, Welcome to Derry season 2 will have to deal with the fallout of the great depression. "There’s gonna be a lot of that depression-era hustling in the air in our characters," said Muschietti to Variety. "Everybody’s trying to get by and survive the circumstances. They are gonna do crazy things."
