Chucky is the first show in the classic horror franchise- Child’s Play. Chucky Season 1 debuted on Syfy and USA Network in 2021. The show was one of the highest rated TV shows of 2021 with a startling critical reception, it was only inevitable that its home networks would pick it up for a second season and that is what happened. While all the actors from the first season would be making a return, or at least the ones who survived, there have been some new additions to the cast for season 2. We covered the new additions to the cast last month. The show being renewed so quickly for a 2nd Season was a great news for the fans as that meant they would be able to see their favorite murdering doll in less than a year’s time. That sounded wrong.
However, since the announcement of the 2nd season we haven’t been getting major updates about the show. We got minor updates about the new additions to the cast but that’s it. The filming of the 2nd Season began earlier this year and fans were wondering when can the show make a return. Well you don’t have to wonder anymore as Syfy just released a teaser for the 2nd Season.
Chucky Season 2 Coming This Year?
Season 2 will hopefully answer all the questions raised by Season 1’s bloody finale. Chucky Season 2 will release simultaneously release on USA Network and Syfy on 5th October 2022 at 9 pm. New episodes will debut weekly and all the episodes till the season finale will land up on Peacock eventually.
Chucky Season 2 will star Brad Dourif as voice of Chucky/Charles Lee Ray, while Jennifer Tilly, Alex Vincent, and Christine Elise are reprising their roles as Tiffany, Alex, and Kyle. Despite these returning players, Chucky focuses on a new cast of teenagers that includes Zackary Arthur, Teo Briones, Björgvin Arnarson, and Alyvia Alyn Lind. The new additions to the show are Meg Tilly (Psycho II), Gina Gershon (Borderlands), Joe Pantoliano (Bad Boys for Life), Tony Nappo (Saw II), Sutton Stracke (The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills), and Lara Jean Chorostecki ( Hannibal)
Lara Jean Chorostecki’s character like many new additions is mysterious for now. But what we know is that at the end of season 1 Chucky’s killing rampage rendered Hackensack devoid of adults with the deaths of Lexy’s dad Nathan, Devon’s mom Kim, and Jake’s dad Lucas during the show’s first season while also completely destroying the Wheeler family. The new cast additions bring new adults to town, giving and his doll army new targets.
As for now we don’t have a lot of information on the season though it is believed that Chucky and his doll army will have a bigger role in season 2 and many new additions to the cast might become unfortunate victims to him. Check out the teaser trailer.
Chucky Season 1 is available for streaming on Peacock. Chucky Season 2 will debut on 5th October 2022.
