Matilda Lawler On WELCOME TO DERRY Secrets, Dark Web Search History, & Who She Trusted Most On Set
Hello everyone, my name is Chris, and welcome to another episode of Once and Always a Fanboy.
My guest today is from one of my favorite shows of 2025, IT Welcome to Derry. She plays a character who quietly becomes the emotional backbone of the series. What starts as a story about fitting in turns into something much darker, braver, and way more important to the IT mythology than anyone expected. And she sells every turn with a performance that feels honest and lived in.
Fangirls and fanboys, Matilda Lawler!
