It is one of the popular horror franchises of all time, which adapts the events of the story crafted by one of the legendary authors, Stephen King. In the beginning, the audience met Pennywise in 1990’s miniseries, but it couldn’t become that popular. The franchise gained recognition when It: Part One arrived on our screens. Since then, the franchise has evolved tremendously, and here’s how to watch It movies in order of release date and chronology.

The saga of Pennywise the Dancing Clown began in 2017, and it doesn’t seem to stop anytime soon, as the TV Show has been renewed for two more seasons, with the second one entering the development stage already . Well, if you wonder how to watch the films and the series in release date order, here you go:
- It: Chapter One- September 8, 2017
- It: Chapter Two- September 6, 2019
- It: Welcome to Derry- October 26, 2025
It: Part One
Directed by Andy Muschietti, It Part One was released in 2017. The film basically tells the story of Stephen King’s classic novel by adding a pinch of modern touch. It takes us to a peaceful town of Derry, where things seem fine on the surface, but if you dig deeper, you’ll realize that everything is just an illusion. Things begin with the tragic death of a kid named Georgie Denbrough. The movie follows his elder brother Bill and his friends, who become the target of Pennywise the Dancing Clown.
Bill and his group are all struggling with some deep guilt and anxieties, and the clown takes advantage of these vulnerabilities because he thrives in the fear and guilt of his target. However, despite having several issues, the kids face this grotesque creature bravely and eventually find a disturbing secret about the town. They discover that these disappearances of the children occur every 27 years in the town; so basically, Pennywise isn’t a random ghost, but an ancient entity, who goes into hibernation for decades, only to awaken again to feed.
It: Part Two
The second part takes a leap of 27 years; Pennywise is back again in the town. However, following the ultimate face-off with this creature, every kid, except Mike Hanlon, leaves the town. So, once you escape Derry, the memories of the town fade away, so no one really remembers anything clearly. However, when a man named Adrian Mellon is killed by the clown, Mike calls every one of them and asks them to return. All of them except Stanley reunite in Derry as he kills himself after Mike calls him. Mike retrieves everyone’s memories, and It opens up the news of Stan’s death.
Each member of the Losers Club again finds themselves standing at the face of the one who traumatized them in their childhood. So, this time, they have determined to finish Pennywise’s story once and for all.

It: Welcome to Derry, released in 2025, delved deeper into the origins of the ancient entity that terrorized Derry for centuries. We get to meet new characters, or we can say new generations that faced Pennywise the Clown’s earlier awakenings. And to be honest, the level of gore and bloodshed featured in the series surpassed every level that the films came with. The fandom started comparing the premiere episode of Welcome to Derry with Game of Thrones’ Red Wedding episode.
Welcome to Derry, not only did it make us witness another group of children face the outworldly entity, but it also showed us the roots of the horror that made Derry a prison for the people living in it.
How to Watch It Movies and Television Shows in Chronological Order?
Well, I know some of you might want to watch the story from the very beginning, I mean, from where it all started, isn’t it? So, here, I reveal the chronological watch order for It: Welcome to Derry:
- It: Welcome to Derry
- It: Chapter One
- It: Chapter Two
Where to Watch the It Movies and TV Show?
There are two movies of IT that show how Pennywise the Dancing Clown terrorizes Derry throughout the centuries.
IT: Welcome To Derry is set in the year 1962, which means the story of the TV series takes place before the two IT movies.
Yes, since Welcome to Derry is the prequel, you can watch it before the two It movies. However, even if you watch the movie before TV shows, it won’t affect your overall experience.
