As horror fans will know, Chucky is one of the most iconic horror characters in history. The nightmarish doll debuted in the 1988 horror flick Child’s Play and has since become a pillar of the horror genre as one of its creepiest creations. Created by Don Mancini, Chucky has since appeared in numerous films and even a television series, which is still ongoing. But, as you might imagine, Chucky is not the only horror doll out there, and it seems that he has received a very frightening competition.
In 2022, Universal released M3GAN, a horror flick about a robotic doll of the same name that becomes self-aware and becomes hostile to anyone who stands in the way of her and her human companion. The movie shows the potential horrors of artificial intelligence, but M3GAN has become a popular horror character almost immediately, and due to the fact that she is also a doll,...

Season 3 of the Chucky TV series (read our review Here) had to be split in half due to the writers and actors strikes, but production recently resumed, and the remaining episodes of the season will be airing on Syfy and USA Network (and reaching the Peacock streaming service) later this year. While we wait to see what the rest of Chucky season 3 has in store for us, franchise creator Don Mancini has confirmed that he’s considering sending Chucky to space simply because fans keep asking him about the possibility.
The idea of Chucky going to space, following in the footsteps of fellow genre stars like Jason Voorhees, Pinhead, and Leprechaun, has been bouncing around for years. Back in 2017, Mancini told The Movie Crypt podcast hosts Adam Green and Joe Lynch (after the expectation of Chucky going to space was brought up to him), “I have an idea for Chucky in Space.

One thing that’s been made clear about the “Chucky” franchise is that the character can shine in any situation, with Don Mancini’s recent movies and television series thus far thrusting him into a psychiatric hospital, a Catholic school, and even the White House. While we wait for the return of “Chucky” Season 3 this year, we can’t help but wonder where he’s going next.
How about Chucky… in Space?!
Don Mancini has joked about sending the killer doll to outer space in the past, noting back in 2021 that Chucky is “such a versatile character.” Mancini also said at the time, “We’ve found that he operates successfully in all kinds of different tones and subgenres, whether it’s horror, or comedy, places in between. So I think as a character he’s versatile enough and appealing enough and interesting enough that he could probably go anywhere…even into outer space.
