Headline: Bill Skarsgård flippant over airport drugs arrest

Caption: The notoriously private Swedish actor, famous for playing terrifying clown Pennywise in the It film series, was arrested for possessing marijuana at Stockholm's Arlanda Airport last October. In February this year, reports emerged that the star had pled guilty to possessing 2.43 grams of the drug and he was fined 40,000 Swedish Krona (£2,950). Speaking about the incident for the first time, Bill quipped to Esquire magazine that it was not the first time he had carried the drug, but "it was my first time getting caught".
