‘IT: Welcome to Derry’ Showrunner Jason Fuchs on the Twists of Episode Six

December 1, 2025December 1, 2025 Mike Manalo

If you’re a horror fan, odds are you’re watching IT: Welcome to Derry every Sunday on HBO. Ever since the show debuted October 26, and has become a ratings juggernaut for the network. Furthermore it has enhanced the mythology established in IT and IT: Chapter Two, frankly surpassing the latter by adding more depth to it (as evidenced by this past week’s episode). This is due to the masterful work from showrunners Jason Fuchs and Brad Caleb Kane. And we had an exclusive chance to sit down with Fuchs to discuss the series and the shocking twists from this Sunday’s episode!
