IT; The Derry Interludes (A Series of Short Films)
Project Overview
Synopsis; "Based on the Andy Muschietti directed films IT, and IT; Chapter 2, as well as the successful HBO Show, IT; Welcome to Derry. This series of short films explores Mike Hanlon traversing the town of Derry in a light rarely seen on the big or small screen. Exploring the town inside and out, interviewing those willing to tell him their stories, what they've seen, whether that be the average citizen, the small businesses, the police, or even the ever so happy and jovial children. on the surface. Derry is a beautiful town.. but what Mr. Hanlon knows more than everyone else, is that every 27 years, an unknown horror surfaces from deep underground. A cosmic horror, in the form of a clown, named ‘Pennywise the Dancing Clown!’"
This is by all means a passion project is for fans of the IT novel and film franchise and explores the different layers that are yet to be explored in the future. We're currently in the process of developing many assets that will be used in the long term, and are currently constructing stories to write. Now we need some voice actors and actresses who understand the material and are willing to put themselves out there for it.
The exact medium for the project is to be a sort of collage of my favorite mediums to work with, Mike Hanlon will be documenting his progress on the town with his camera and tape recorder, but the stories told by town residents will be seen more clearly, in a sort of cinematic, style we hope.

Michael "Mike" Hanlon is a major protagonist of the Stephen King multiverse. Instead of leaving Derry alongside his fellow Losers Club members. He chose to stay in Derry, to keep watch, lying in wait for IT's return. Now a librarian taking interviews of all the townsfolk...those that'll talk to him anyhow..
Mid 20's-Early 30's in this series as it's taking place, black male,
Voice is low and soothing, a comforting one, the voice of someone you can trust.

"Memory. It's a funny thing. People want to believe they are what they choose to remember. The good stuff. The moments. The places. The people we hold on to. But sometimes, sometimes, we are what we wish we could forget."
"Something happens to you when you leave this town. The farther away, the hazier it gets. But me, I never left. So, yeah, I remember. I remember all of it."
"The thing is, sometimes what we wish was forgotten, what we try to leave in the past, won't stay there."
Clint Bowers was the chief of the Derry Police Department in 1962 and the grandfather of Henry Bowers. He is a main character and the tertiary antagonist of the first season of IT: Welcome to Derry. Along with a group of racists, Bowers caused the burning of The Black Spot in his unsuccessful search to hunt down Hank Grogan. The character will make minor appearances in shorts taking place in 1962.
40's-Early 50's, white male
Character's voice is low and has a menacing and authoritative cadence to it, astonishingly manipulative.

Threatening "You kids keep your noses out of police business, or ghouls and goblins will be the very least of your worries."
"'Thou shalt not lie' Hank..."
Authoritative "Then where were you? and don't give me any more guff about you being home in bed, don't insult my intelligence!"
Creed Portland Chalmers, the town mayor in the 1962 cycle (In our version). This character is the complacent and uncaring head of the local government. Pays no mind to the happenings taking place in Derry such as the various hate crimes, and the dead children. Would sooner die from smoking too many cigars before calling for a proper investigation into the horrific events taking place.
60's, white male
Sounds like he's been chain smoking for the last 6 years, sounds to be from the country.

"I understand, some people might be..concerned with some of the recent happenings..rest assured there are logical explanations..and we're going to move past them..as a community."
Annoyed "Get me Bowers on the phone, now!"
Commanding "I've got three dead kids floating down the barrens with no suspect, you find one, or a plethora of unhappy civilians will find one for you! .....you don't want that kind of look, do ya, Chief?"
A voice that IT re-uses regularly throughout the franchise, originally portrayed by Andrew Morgado
The voice used for the Leper from Chapter One and Two. The Pickle Dad and Uncle Sam in Welcome to Derry. It's one you can't forget if you've seen the material.

Al Bradley was a criminal lord and a minor character in the horror novel, IT.
Along with his brother George, Al was the dual leader of the "Bradley Gang" (a mob of felons who would often rob and terrorize stores across Derry through out the early 1930's). Al and his entire associates were fatally gunned down by several of the town's members in a sudden act of carnage.
Late 30's, Early 40's, white Italian American male,
In my vision, voice sounds close to something portrayed by James Gandolfini

Mocking "These folk wouldn't know class if it smacked them right in the face..that's why we're here.."
