I took a deep breathe when I saw this Tweet yesterday:
Stephen King @StephenKing · May 25
The remake of IT may be dead–or undead–but we’ll always have Tim Curry. He’s still floating down in the sewers of Derry.

Oh my! You all know that It is my favorite Stephen King book, and that Pennywise had me scared to death of clowns (which I saw after I performed as a clown in my high school’s production of Barnum).
I was ridiculously interested in how a new version would look, even though I don’t think anyone can be Mr. P any better than Tim Curry! With the director gone, and a small budget I think a remake isn’t in the cards.
Any thoughts on this, my horror friends?

That’s heart breaking. I’m not a big King fan, but I love IT.

I can’t even. I was so looking forward to this.
