Our favorite possessed doll is back and ready to play in the new trailer for the upcoming ten-episode series “Chucky,” from franchise creator Don Mancini.
In the new television series, an idyllic American town is thrown into chaos after a vintage ‘Good Guy’ doll turns up at a suburban yard sale. Soon, everyone must grapple with a series of horrifying murders that begin to expose the town’s deep hypocrisies and hidden secrets. Meanwhile, friends and foes from Chucky’s past creep back into his world and threaten to expose the truth behind his mysterious origins as a seemingly ordinary child who somehow became this notorious monster.
Brad Dourif, who has long voiced Chucky, returns along with franchise stars Jennifer Tilly who is back as Tiffany, Fiona Dourif as Nica Pierce, Alex Vincent as Andy Barclay, and Christine Elise as Kyle. Devon Sawa (Final Destination, Hunter Hunter), “Arrow” actress Lexa Doig, Teo Briones (“Ratched”), Bjorgvin Arnarson (“PEN15”), and Alyvia Alyn Lind (“The Young and the Restless”), and Zackary Arthur have joined the cast.
The series is produced by UCP and executive produced by creator Don Mancini, David Kirschner, Nick Antosca, and Alex Hedlund. Harley Peyton will also serve as executive producer. Mancini, who penned the film franchise, wrote the television adaptation, will direct the first episode, and serves as showrunner.
“Chucky” premieres on October 12th, at 10 pm on both Syfy and USA.
