With the first season just having finished, the Child’s Play series Chucky will return as USA Network has renewed the series for a second season.
“We’re thrilled to start pulling the strings on a second season of puppet mayhem with Chucky,” said franchise creator Don Mancini. “Many thanks to our partners at USA, Syfy and UCP for their incredible support and guidance bringing Chucky to the small screen, bigger than ever. And to the fans, Chucky sends his still-undying thanks, and a message: ‘This isn’t over, not by a long shot. You better watch your backs in 2022.’”

In the new television series, an idyllic American town is thrown into chaos after a vintage ‘Good Guy’ doll turns up at a suburban yard sale. Soon, everyone must grapple with a series of horrifying murders that begin to expose the town’s deep hypocrisies and hidden secrets. Meanwhile, friends and foes from Chucky’s past creep back into his world and threaten to expose the truth behind his mysterious origins as a seemingly ordinary child who somehow became this notorious monster.
Chucky sees the return of franchise veterans Brad Dourif, Jennifer Tilly and Fiona Dourif as Chucky, Tiffany and Nica Pierce respectively, while new cast additions include Zackary Arthur, Teo Briones, Bjorgvin Arnarson and Alyvia Alyn Lind as the young leads with Devon Sawa, Lexa Doig and Barbara Alyn Woods.
