Concept Art for Pennywise The Clown from IT, Predator and More
Writer and director Vincenzo Natali (Splice, Cube, Hannibal) has released several pieces of concept art and pitch work online from film projects he has developed over the years. Some of the unmade projects featured here including a terrifying vision of Pennywise the clown from Stephen King’s It, Predator, and an adaptation of the William Gibson novel Neuromancer, which looks like it could have been awesome. You can read more about the project here.
I've always been fascinated by artwork from undeveloped film projects like this. This is the raw beginning stages of film development, and it give us some insight into what the director was imagining in his head. Check out the art below and let us know what you think about his vision for these projects.
