20 Upcoming Movie Sequels You Had NO IDEA About
19. Child's Play 8
Child's Play is one of the most iconic and enduring horror franchises of all time, with the most recent installments being 2017's Cult of Chucky, 2019's Aubrey Plaza-starring remake, and the brilliant TV series which ran from 2021 to 2024.=
With the recent cancellation of the TV show after three seasons, though, the future of Chucky seemed uncertain, with many fans worried that he'd end up taking an extended sabbatical - a particular concern given that Chucky voice actor Brad Dourif is now in his late seventies.
But franchise creator Don Mancini just confirmed that he's currently writing an eighth entry into the main Child's Play franchise, which will function as something of a soft reboot like 2013's Curse of Chucky, while still keeping the previous films and TV series canon.
Intriguingly, Mancini is also intending for this new installment to get Chucky back on the big screen, after Curse of Chucky and Cult of Chucky both went direct to video.
And considering the TV series surely won Chucky a whole new generation of fans, why the heck not?
