Looks like a melting pot of a few King novels

A black character was among the Losers Club in the original novel, and a racially charged event in Derry's past is detailed as well.
The novel also opens with a homophobic hate crime which I don't believe has found it's way into any of the adaptations so far.

i think the difference is that in "IT", those events brought those losers closer together, rather making the focus of the story about the town getting more tribal and divided, like these trailers suggest.

Ah, ok. I only watched that once, because retelling the entire story in chronological order is dumb and the '50s setting is essential. The miniseries is imperfect as well due to network television standards, although Tim Curry's performance is classic.
It seems like this is really just a series set in Derry, sort of like Hulu's Castle Rock, set in another town of King's creation.

hopefully derry will live up to and exceed our now heightened expectations

I wouldn't expect to see that scene
Honestly, I'd rather see them finally adapt The Talisman than this or another new version of Carrie (as much as I love Mike Flanagan).

i think the problem with making another carrie is that sissy's performance is really what sells it, along with how raw everything looked back in 1970's horror.

The entire story rests on the assumption that Carrie didn't realize what was going on initially. That's not impossible in 1974, given her very sheltered upbringing. But it would be very unbelievable in 2025.
But, yes, Spacek's performance and De Palma's direction will not be topped.

i could see them trying to sell carrie as some religious homeschooled kid that tries to enter public school as a teen. that way it checks all the hollywood agenda boxes.
