This morning brings our first look at the upcoming Chucky TV series on SyFy, as well as a premier date for fans to look forward to.
If you’ve been looking forward to the return of the (original) murderous doll, Chucky, your wait has gotten quite a bit shorter. Today, thanks to a reveal by Entertainment Weekly, we have our first look at Chucky’s return (bringing back a familiar look from the second Child’s Play movie):
More than that, they’ve also announced when we’ll actually be able to watch the upcoming horror series. Chucky will debut on October 12th at 10 PM on USA and SYFY.
In the show, 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.
Be sure to hit up the EW link for some more details on the show from the showrunner (and original creator) Don Mancini. Will you be watching this in October?
