If you’re like me, you’ve no doubt been impatiently waiting for the arrival ofWelcome to Derry,Max’s prequel series based on Stephen King’s iconic (and mammoth) book,It.The book is so large that the most recent movie adaptation was split into two parts, and honestly, its lore is big enough to make it more than worthy of more adaptations.

Thankfully, we’re getting just that, although we haven’t been given a trailer so we’ll have to wait a little longer. But there’s plenty of great stuffcoming to Max in November.

Despite the lack of trailers, Max has released some stills to tide us over. This gives us a little look inside Derry, which is thankfullyfictional, so there’s no chance of any of us actually ending up there – I hope not, anyway.

Take a look at the images below, fresh from one of thebest streaming services.

What do we know about Welcome to Derry?

The creators are being fairly tight-lipped about plot details. According toa Max press release: “Set in the world of Stephen King’sItuniverse,It: Welcome to Derryis based on King’sItnovel and expands the vision established by filmmaker Andy Muschietti in the feature filmsItandIt Chapter Two.”

So it’s a prequel series and will expand on the lore we already know, which is making me impatient for a trailer and more information. It’s one of my favorite books and I hope that this adaptation will be worthy of a spot on ourbest Max shows list, but only time will tell.
