Actor bill Skarsgard, who embodied the image on the screen, in a fresh interview has revealed very interesting details of casting. It turns out, the Director asked to audition directly in the image:

Andy Mosketti said that it should come with a simple makeup. Not with a clown nose, but with the painted face and clownish smile. I thought it was a great idea, until that moment, until I realized that with makeup I can’t do it. This skill I have.
In the end, I asked my girlfriend to help with the makeup, and then got in the car and went to listen through the whole of Los Angeles. There was something humiliating and absurd. I am – Hollywood actor – going to the audition with a clown face. Perhaps this is a kind of metaphor of our profession.
In addition, Andy was asked to study the laughter of a clown. And here I sit in the car, I feel ridiculous, but I think that I will succeed. And begin to wrinkle like crazy – in the car, with pedestrians around.
The audition was not at the Studio, so I had to Park and walk a few blocks in clown makeup. All this helped me to stay in character. Actually it was one of the strangest things I have ever done, but it summed up my connection with the character.

Not bad, huh? Moschetti knows a lot about the abuse of actors, hehe. But with this approach we got that Pennywise you deserve. Creepy and memorable. After this story respect Skarsgard even more.

9 January 2018, “It” will be released on DVD and Blu-ray.
