Kate McKinnon is Kellywise the Dancing Clown in SNL parody sketch

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

The new IT movie has already seeped itself into pop-culture, with fans getting Pennywise costumes ready for Halloween and people making hilarious parody videos out of the clown’s creepy, spirited dance.  The latest parody of the blockbuster horror flick comes from SNL, who used the movie’s opening sewer scene to satirize Trump adviser and campaign manager Kellyanne Conway, played here by Kate McKinnon. Conway takes on the Pennywise (Bill Skarsgard) role as she tries to lure Anderson Cooper (Alex Moffat) into the sewer. McKinnon also dons her Hillary Clinton impression, but does stellar work impersonating Skarsgard's Pennywise, and does a near-perfect, incredibly creepy job. If Skarsgard, for some reason, drops out of doing the sequel before it starts filming, I think the replacement is all ready to go.
