Ttthhhaaattt isss ttthhheee Ittt.
~ Mrs. Which telling Meg, Charles Wallace, and Calvin about the It.

IT, also known as Red while possessing him, is the main antagonist of the novel A Wrinkle in Time (the first installment to the Time Quintet series), and its 2003 and 2018 film adaptations. Best regarded as a male, IT is a powerful entity taking the form of a brain, and he is the ruler of planet Camazotz.

In the 2018 film, he was voiced by David Oyelowo, who also played Steven Jacobs in Rise of the Planet of the Apes, Agent Kallus in Star Wars: Rebels and Scar in The Lion Guard. While possessing his human puppet Red, he was portrayed by Michael Peña, who also played Grubber in My Little Pony: The Movie and Terrance Mendoza in the live-action Tom & Jerry movie.

Biography[]

IT came into being likely some time in the ancient past, and is an enigmatic and telepathic entity that appears as a giant human brain. IT’s arrival to Camazotz causes it to surrender to the Black Thing. IT houses itself in a dome near the "CENTRAL Central Intelligence" building, and brainwashes the Man with Red Eyes (called Red), who seems to be of high profile. Using him, IT controls all the people in Camazotz and makes them often do the same things together in a mechanistic synchronism as if they were robots in order to feed off of the pain of humans who fail.

When Charles Wallace arrives, IT speaks through the Man With Red Eyes and later through Charles Wallace himself, but is defeated by Meg’s love (presumably temporarily).

Personality[]

IT's aim is to enforce absolute conformity on Camazotz, with the claimed benefit of eliminating war, unhappiness and inefficiency, but likely for its own being or for the being of The Black Thing (who either is a part of IT or is IT’s true master). However, IT is aware of (and somewhat enjoys) cruelty and harm when aimed towards people who fail to obey IT, referring to "ITself" as "The Happiest Sadist". IT does not understand or have love in any way, seeing it as just a “useless word”, and is even depicted in the 2018 film by being somewhat afraid of love. In the 2018 film, it attempts to manipulate Meg into joining IT as well, as many other people have before. Because of this, IT is not used to rejection and grows angry when Meg says she does not want to join IT.

Appearance[]

In the books and most of the film adaptations, IT is a large humanlike brain (much larger than a typical human brain) that moves and emits a voice on its own. However, in the 2018 film adaptation, IT is depicted instead as a neuron-like beast with glowing reddish orange claws and several other neuronic bodies attached to it as well.

While possessing Charles Wallace, IT makes his pupils vanish into his eyes, and during the final battle in the 2018 film makes him grow crack-like structures on his face that represent his deteriorating humanity. Red’s red eyes may also be a sign of this deteriorating humanity and possession and it may be possible Red looked more normal before IT possessed him.
