The horror series It: Welcome to Derry, a recent adaptation of Stephen King‘s iconic work, will soon be available for fans in a physical format. Warner Bros. Home Entertainment announced the release of the 4K UHD limited edition Steelbook, Blu-ray, and DVD versions, all set to hit shelves on May 5, 2026.

This first season of the show, which consists of eight episodes, takes viewers back to 1962, exploring the origins of the notorious character, Pennywise the Dancing Clown. The series aims to provide a fresh perspective on King’s enduringly chilling tale, featuring a narrative that delves deeper into the lore of Derry, the fictional town plagued by this malevolent entity.

The physical release promises a wealth of bonus content, allowing fans to immerse themselves in the making of the series. Included are a never-before-seen featurette and three extended behind-the-scenes episodes, offering a comprehensive look at the production process and creative decisions.

The project is co-created by Andy Muschietti, Barbara Muschietti, and Jason Fuchs, who previously collaborated on the successful feature films released in 2017 and 2019. Muschietti also directed the series, while Fuchs served as co-showrunner alongside Brad Caleb Kane. Together, they have assembled a talented cast, including Bill Skarsgård, who reprises his role as Pennywise, alongside actors such as Taylour Paige, Stephen Rider, and Jovan Adepo.

The creators have expressed interest in expanding the narrative beyond its initial season. From the outset, the Muschiettis envisioned Welcome to Derry as a multi-season series that could explore the cycles of terror that Pennywise inflicts upon the town.

While a second season has yet to be officially greenlit, the show’s performance on streaming platforms suggests that positive news may be forthcoming. Fans are eager to see whether the series will continue to unfold the sinister history of Derry and its infamous resident.

As the release date approaches, viewers can prepare to welcome Pennywise into their homes when It: Welcome to Derry: The Complete First Season becomes available on physical media. This upcoming release promises to be a significant addition to the collections of horror enthusiasts and fans of Stephen King’s work alike.
