Sources say that Zackary Arthur (Transparent), Teo Briones (Ratched), Bjorgvin Arnarson (PEN15) and Alyvia Alyn Lind (The Young and the Restless) will play the four young leads. Reports from last year indicated that Brad Dourif would reprise his role as the voice of Chucky, and that Jennifer Tilly would also be involved in the series. She played Tiffany Valentine in Bride of Chucky, Seed of Chucky, Curse of Chucky and Cult of Chucky.

The series begins when a vintage Chucky doll turns up at a suburban yard sale and an idyllic American town is thrown into chaos as a series of horrifying murders begin to expose the town’s hypocrisies and secrets. Meanwhile, the arrival of enemies -- and allies -- from Chucky’s past threatens to expose the truth behind the killings, as well as the demon doll’s untold origins as a seemingly ordinary child who somehow became this notorious monster. That's right... we're going to see Charles Lee Ray as a little boy!

Series creator Mancini will write Chucky and direct the first episode in addition to serving as showrunner. He and Antosca will also executive produce the series with Child's Play franchise producer David Kirschner and Harley Peyton (Twin Peaks). Produced by UCP, the series was originally slated to start production last fall in Toronto, but it was delayed due to the pandemic.

It’s my guilty pleasure franchise
I like the movies, especially 2 and 3, but this looks dumb
So is the show continuing from Cult if she’s back?
Because what they did in Curse + Cult was so good
I love the new angle that they’re pushing the franchise and I’m 100% for it if that’s what they’re doing
Omg this was the s*** when I was a child and first movies actually scared me. Doubt I would still enjoy this but in
