Deleted Scene From 'It' Features Pennywise's Disturbing Backstory
“There’s a great scene, it’s a bit of a payoff of the Stanley Uris plot which is the bar mitzvah, where he delivers a speech against all expectations… it’s basically blaming all the adults of Derry (for the town’s history), and it has a great resolution.”
He went on to reveal that there is an extended version of the quarry scene:
“After the spitting contest it escalates into something that is completely weird and irrelevant to the scene but is so funny. Jack Grazer, who plays Eddie, does something that is completely bonkers.”
Exciting as that may be, there is additional awesome news. On account of on-screen character Bill Skarsgard, who played Pennywise the Clown in the film, there was another scene that was cut from the film. The performing artist says that the scene prods Pennywise's backstory and says that it's exceptionally disturbing.
This is the thing that he had to share while he was a guest on Variety's "Playback" podcast, he quickly discussed the scene that was cut saying:
“There was a scene we shot that was a flashback from the 1600s, before Pennywise [was Pennywise]. The scene turned out really, really disturbing. And I’m not the clown. I look more like myself. It’s very disturbing, and sort of a backstory for what It is, or where Pennywise came from. That might be something worth exploring in the second one. The idea is the ‘It’ entity was dormant for thousands and thousands of years. The [flashback] scene hints on that."
Perhaps this will be incorporated into the director's cut, possibly it will discover its way into a spin-off. It sounds completely interesting and it'd be a disgrace in the event that we never get the chance to see what precisely this scene involves. What is more intriguing is that this is set in 1600's which begs the question as to just who is this It entity.
