Chucky season 3 just aired its finale last night – but when it comes to genre icons like Chucky, horror fans usually start asking “When is the next sequel coming?” as soon as they finish watching the most recent one… or in this case, they’re asking, “When is the next season coming?” or “Is there going to be another season at all?” Series creator Don Mancini recently said that he has already pitched the idea of Chucky season 4, but it hasn’t been officially ordered yet. But if fans want to show their support for the idea of the show being renewed, there is a way they can let the higher-ups know they want to see Chucky season 4. That came in the final moments of the finale, when Chucky took a moment to announce that he’s running for “a fourth consecutive term” and donations can be made by calling 1-...

Don Mancini, who has written every film in the Child’s Play / Chucky franchise (except the remake) and directed a few of them, developed the TV series Chucky with producer David Kirschner – and he has made it clear that he enjoys casting actors in multiple roles. For example, Devon Sawa has already played four different characters over the course of the TV show’s three seasons. Now Entertainment Weekly has learned that legendary filmmaker John Waters is the latest person to play two different roles in this franchise. Having previously played Pete Peters, a tabloid photographer who got dissolved by acid in 2004’s Seed of Chucky, Waters has now been added to the cast of Chucky season 3, where he’ll be playing Wendell Wilkins, “the reclusive creator of the Good Guy dolls, who gets drawn into the psychopathic Chucky’s tangled web”.

At one point in time, Steven Spielberg was set to direct the thriller Cape Fear, while Martin Scorsese was attached to direct the historical drama Schindler’s List. Then Scorsese decided to step away from Schindler’s List, a choice that coincided with Spielberg deciding that Cape Fear was too violent for him. So the directors traded movies – resulting in Scorsese directing Robert De Niro and Juliette Lewis to Oscar nominations for Cape Fear and Spielberg turning Schindler’s List into a Best Picture winner. Now Deadline reports that Spielberg and Scorsese are teaming up to executive produce a TV series adaptation of Cape Fear, with Nick Antosca on board as executive producer and showrunner.
Antosca’s previous credits include Hannibal, The Forest, Channel Zero, Brand New Cherry Flavor, Antlers, The Act, Candy, and A Friend of the Family.

In 1991, director Martin Scorsese remade 1962’s Cape Fear, based on the 1957 novel The Executioners by John D. MacDonald, for Steven Spielberg‘s Amblin Entertainment. It appears they’re returning to the IP: Deadline reports that Scorsese and Spielberg have teamed with “Channel Zero” creator Nick Antosca for a new series that’ll take an unconventional approach.
“Cape Fear” marks the first ever TV collaboration for Scorsese and Spielberg, who are executive producing the project from creator, executive producer and showrunner Nick Antosca.
The series is described as a “a tense, contemporary thriller that examines America’s obsession with true crime in the 21st century. In it, a storm is coming for a pair of married attorneys when an infamous killer from their past gets released after years in prison.”
In every iteration of Cape Fear so far, the plot sees a lawyer’s family tormented by the criminal he helped put in prison.

The third annual Halloween episode of “Chucky” will air on both USA and Syfy this Wednesday, and Bloody Disgusting is celebrating early with a sneak peek clip this morning.
In Halloween III: Season of the Witch, airing on October 25, “Jake, Devon and Lexy infiltrate a Halloween ball to stop Chucky – But the demon doll has other plans.”
Chucky is dressed up as the Phantom of the Opera in the exclusive 2-minute clip, and he finally reveals his true intentions to young Henry Collins (Callum Vinson). The killer doll’s master plan? Now that Jake, Devon and Lexy are headed to the White House, he plans on adding them to his body count. Three more kills on the grounds of the White House, as last week’s episode revealed, may be enough to appease Damballa and free Chucky of his current predicament.

Actor Devon Sawa’s career has run the gamut from teen idol to leading man. However, he realized that playing the president of the United States on the SyFy series Chucky is infinitely easier than navigating the perils of teen superstardom. Here’s why Sawa stepped away from acting after being a teen idol and why it was one of the best decisions he ever made.
Being a teen idol ‘never felt normal’ says ‘Chucky’ star Devon Sawa
Teen idols are a unique set of celebrities. They are generally between the ages of 15 and 25 and dominate magazines, which is the mindset of young fans.
Pre-internet, being a teen idol, was even more dramatic than it is today. Appearances in leading publications geared to young people, coupled with a hit song and a steady gig in movies and television, comprised most of these celebrities.

A few months ago, Universal Studios announced that one of the haunted houses that would be part of this year’s Halloween Horror Nights event at the Universal Orlando and Universal Studios Hollywood resorts would be inspired by the killer doll Chucky. This haunted house is called Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count – and in a newly released video, Chucky himself promotes the attraction! You can check it out in the embed above.
Chucky: Ultimate Kill Count casts the killer doll as the star of his very own haunted house for the first time. A true sadistic killer, Chucky has been mired in the agony of disrespect he feels from his peers at not being taken seriously.

Hail to the chief? Hell to the no! The third round of the A-plus horror-com, Chucky, starring filmdom’s favorite homicidal toy is about to turn the White House into a slaughterhouse. Fittingly, the Good Guys doll possessed by the spirit of serial killer Charles Lee Ray is a bipartisan baddie. “This is not meant to be any kind of political commentary,” executive producer Alex Hedlund promises. (Credit: Shane Mahood/Syfy) “We want people to think of the White House like the Overlook Hotel…it is a creepy old house with a lot of history, a lot of mythology, and a lot of stories, most of which we don’t know.” Add a mini madman in overalls and “it’s much more The Shining than it is The West Wing.” Still, this is not a case of “All work and no Child’s Play makes Chucky a dull toy.” After...

Devon Sawa played three different roles across the first two seasons of the Chucky TV series, and in season 3 he’s taking on a fourth role: President James Collins.

As announced a few days ago, the Chucky TV series will be returning for a third season on Syfy and USA Network – and in a new interview shared by USA Network, franchise mastermind Don Mancini confirmed that Chucky season 3 has largely been mapped out already. We might even see more familiar faces from the Child’s Play / Chucky franchise when the show returns!

Luckily, he won’t have to do that… so we might see a musical episode or an animated sequence show up in the series at some point. Mancini said, “I feel incredibly excited and grateful. I mean, as a lifelong horror fan,...
