Rudy Mancuso
The Big Picture is going to be singing a very different tune from the jovial sounds we heard in his feature-length directorial debut, Música, as the actor is the latest name to join the ever-growing call sheet for HBO’s Welcome To Derry . Details surrounding Mancuso’s character are being kept tightly under wraps, but according to Deadline, who dropped the exclusive news, Mancuso was tapped for a recurring role in the highly-anticipated It prequel series.
With Bill Skarsgård getting back into the makeup chair to reprise his role as Pennywise/It from the most recent feature-length adaptations of the iconic Stephen King novel, the production continues to show promise even if it was pushed further back than we’d like. The story set to unfold in Welcome To Derry won’t be found in any of King’s published works as it was instead penned by It and It Chapter Two helmer, Andy Muschietti, who worked alongside Barbara Muschietti and Jason Fuchs.
Muschietti will again leave his stamp on the project, directing four episodes of the nine-episode season, and will also join the team as an executive producer alongside Barbara Muschietti under their Double Dream banner. Fuchs and Brad Caleb Kane will collaborate as co-showrunners and join as executive producers alongside Skarsgård, David Coatsworth, Shelley Meals, Roy Lee, and Dan Lin.
Is Embracing The Darker Side Of Life Close Having got his start as a YouTube and Vine star, Mancuso’s career has largely been making people smile and brightening their day with his content. This past year, the multi-hyphenate performer released his first feature-length flick, Música, onto Prime Video following a successful world premiere at SXSW.
Welcome To Derry has not set a specific release date but it’s expected to land on Max in 2025. Stay tuned to Collider for more details and learn everything there is to know here in our handy guide.
