Child’s Play remake unboxes its Chucky with first look at the killer doll

April 16, 2019 by Gary Collinson

Back in February Orion Pictures released a teaser trailer for Child’s Play, and now we have our first full look at the movie’s reimagined version of the iconic killer doll Chucky (who’ll be voiced in the new movie by Star Wars legend Mark Hamill). Check it out here and let us know what you make of the new design in the comments below or on Twitter @FlickeringMyth…

A contemporary re-imagining of the 1988 horror classic, CHILD’S PLAY follows Karen (Aubrey Plaza), a single mother who gifts her son Andy (Gabriel Bateman) a Buddi doll, unaware of its more sinister nature.

Child’s Play sees Lars Klevberg (Polaroid) directing a cast that includes Aubrey Plaza (Ingrid Goes West), Brian Tyree Henry (Widows), Gabriel Bateman (Lights Out), Beatrice Kitsos (The Exorcist), Ty Consiglio (Wonder) and Carlease Burke (Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle). It is set for release on June 21st 2019.
