Show notes

Welcome to the third annual Halloween Special of The Shadows Podcast! This year, we are thrilled to have Marlon Taylor, best known for his role as young Mike Hanlon in Stephen King's 1990 television mini-series, 'It,' and a recent appearance in the documentary 'Pennywise: The Story of It.' In this episode, Marlon shares his journey into acting as a child, delves into how he landed the iconic role of Mike in 'It,' and recounts his experiences working with the other members of the Losers Club. He also reflects on his brief encounter with the legendary Tim Curry, discusses his views on the newer adaptations of 'It,' including Chosen Jacobs' portrayal of young Mike in the remakes. Marlon provides insights on the controversial ending of the original film and his experiences attending Comic Cons and connecting with fans. He reflects on the enduring legacy of 'It' and how it feels to know that people still discuss it over thirty years later. Additionally, he touches on why he didn't continue pursuing a career in acting and shares his aspirations for future film roles.
