As I was looking for something to write about this week, I decided to type “new film locations” into Google and see what popped up. And, well, this was kinda interesting.
The movie ‘It’ premiered in 2017, and although it is set in Derry, Maine (based off of Bangor, Maine), filming did not take place there. Instead, they filmed in Toronto’s Riverdale area (mostly at the Cranfield House at 450 Pape Ave), and Oshawa and Port Hope for exterior shots.
I can’t imagine how I would feel walking around in the same locations as a horror movie…and I have friends in that area!
However, if YOU are interested in following in Pennywise’s footsteps, here are the filming locations: ‘It’ filming locations
