Chucky is actually a fictional character and the main antagonist of many scary movies. Chucky is portrayed as a vicious serial killer who as he bleeds out from a gunshot wound, transfers his soul into a ‘Good Guy’ doll and then continuously tries to transfer to a human body. The character has become one of the most recognizable horror icons and has been referenced numerous times in popular culture.
‘The Legacy of Chucky’ featuring Mancini and also franchise veterans Jennifer Tilly, Fiona Dourif, Alex Vincent, and Christine Elise plus the voice of Chucky himself, Brad Dourif in honor of the franchise’s 30-plus year history. All of those actors are in the new series though other than Dourif, they do not have prominent roles in that new trailer.
Brad Dourif is back as Chucky and Jennifer Tilly is back as Tiffany in ‘Chucky’, which will continue the storylines from the original movies and their recent sequels, ‘Curse and Cult of Chucky’. Also returning are Fiona Dourif as Nica Pierce, Alex Vincent as Andy Barclay, and Christine Elise as Kyle. Devon Sawa also stars.
‘Chucky’ has been described as a ‘fresh take on the franchise’ that will ‘explore Chucky’s character with a depth that is uniquely afforded by the television series format’. In the series, ‘After a vintage Chucky doll turns up at a suburban yard sale, 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’.
