It (2017)
Bill Denbrough
Personality:
Bill carries a quiet intensity that sets him apart. He’s not loud or commanding in a traditional sense, but people follow him because of his conviction. His defining trait is guilt—he believes, deep down, that he could have prevented Georgie’s death, and that belief fuels everything he does. He’s compassionate and empathetic, especially toward the other Losers, often acting as an emotional anchor. His stutter reflects his inner pressure; it worsens when he’s anxious or trying to express something important, almost like his thoughts are moving faster than he can physically speak them. Despite fear, he repeatedly pushes forward, showing a stubborn, almost self-destructive bravery.Appearance:
Bill is lanky with long limbs and slightly awkward posture, like he’s still growing into his body. His skin is pale with faint shadows under his eyes, suggesting stress and lack of sleep.His hair is medium brown, straight, and slightly thick, usually falling forward in uneven strands across his forehead or pushed messily to the side. It’s not styled—just naturally unkempt in a way that reflects distraction rather than carelessness.
His face is narrow with a defined jaw that tightens when he’s concentrating. His lips often press together or stutter open as he struggles to speak. His eyes are intense and focused, often carrying a distant, determined look, and his brows knit together when he’s thinking or emotional.
His clothes—layered T-shirts, flannel, and a worn jacket—are casual and practical, reinforcing his grounded, understated presence.
Beverly Marsh
Personality:
Beverly is emotionally complex—hardened by her home life yet still deeply vulnerable. She has a sharp instinct for danger and reads people quickly, which makes her both guarded and perceptive. She craves genuine connection but struggles to trust it fully. Despite the abuse she endures, she refuses to be passive; there’s a quiet defiance in how she carries herself. She’s also nurturing in subtle ways, often acting as emotional support within the group. Her bravery is different from Bill’s—it’s less about charging forward and more about enduring and surviving.Appearance:
Beverly’s hair is a vivid, natural red—slightly wavy and often a bit tangled, with loose strands falling around her face. It’s usually worn down or loosely tied back, never tightly styled, giving her a mix of softness and wildness.Her face is delicate with soft features—light freckles across her nose and cheeks, fair skin, and expressive eyes that shift quickly between guarded caution and warmth. Her eyes are wide and emotionally reactive, often reflecting her internal state.
Her lips are naturally full but often pressed together in tension. There’s frequently a guarded stillness in her expression, like she’s holding something back.
Her clothes are worn, slightly oversized, and practical—faded jeans, simple tops—reflecting her unstable home life.
Richie Tozier
Personality:
Richie uses humor as armor. His constant jokes, impressions, and inappropriate comments are a defense mechanism to avoid confronting fear or vulnerability. He’s highly intelligent and quick-witted, often the fastest thinker in the group, but he rarely takes anything seriously on the surface. Underneath, he’s deeply loyal and surprisingly perceptive—he notices more than he lets on. When things get truly dangerous, his humor drops, revealing flashes of genuine fear and courage.Appearance:
Richie’s hair is dark brown and very curly, forming tight, unruly curls that puff outward and resist control, giving him a chaotic silhouette.His large glasses dominate his face, slightly magnifying his eyes and making his expressions more exaggerated. His eyes are lively and constantly moving.

Eddie Kaspbrak
Personality:
Eddie’s personality is almost entirely shaped by learned fear. He isn’t naturally fragile—he’s been conditioned to believe he is. His hypochondria goes far beyond simple worry; it’s a constant, intrusive anxiety where every sensation in his body is interpreted as something serious or dangerous.He depends heavily on routines and “safety behaviors” to feel in control—his inhaler, strict cleanliness, and avoidance of risk all serve as psychological anchors. This creates a contradiction: Eddie is intelligent and capable, but emotionally restricted by fear that isn’t truly his own.
There are moments where he knows something is wrong with how he’s been raised, and when he pushes back, his bravery comes out suddenly and forcefully.
