Filming in Port Hope/Derry Continues This Week
The production “Greetings from Fairview” continues this week in Port Hope. The production may be called “Greetings from Fairview” but the town has clearly turned into Derry, home of Pennywise and the popular IT horror movies.
Along with the actors, IT producer Andy Muschietti was also spotted working with the actors early last week.
