First Look at ‘Stranger Things’ Star Finn Wolfhard in Stephen King’s ‘It’ (Photo)

“It” director Andy Muschietti posted two new photos to tease the upcoming film adaptation of the famous Stephen King novel, one of which features “Stranger Things” actor Finn Wolfhard.

Muschietti took to Instagram to share a missing child flyer from the Derry Police Department, the town in which “It” is set. Wolfhard is Richard Tozier, a wisecracking character referred to as “Trashmouth” in the book.

The director also posted a second photo of a gate with the number 29 on it. According to Movieweb, it signifies 29 Neibolt Street, home of Pennywise the clown in the novel.

The movie adaptation will star Bill Skarsgard as Pennywise and will also include Jack Dylan Grazer, Wyatt Oleff, Chosen Jacobs, Jeremy Ray Taylor and Jaden Lieberher.
