Child’s Play Remake – Brad Dourif Back As Chucky’s Voice

As is the trend in Hollywood these days, the beloved horror/comedy franchise is slated for a remake, but luckily the creator is smart enough to figure out what makes the series work and stick with it by hiring character actor Brad Dourif to continue to voice the psychotic doll Chucky.
From AICN:
“who would you get that’s better? I mean with Chucky so much of it… and David [Kirschner, the producer] and I talk about this a lot, that because he’s a puppet, there’s an aspect of him that feels like he’s an animated character, so his voice is such an immense part of it as well as what he looks like. It’s almost like recasting Homer Simpson or something. If you could recast it, you would want the actor to sound kind of like it, but it would feel weird to just be completely different I think.
Bride of Chucky is one of my favourite horror/comedies of recent years, full of over the top gore and horror in-jokes, as well as the cheesy one liners Chucky is famous for, but apparently with the new remake the creators are doing away with the comedy aspect of the series and making it a full on horror. Personally I think the idea of a doll posessed by a dead serial killer is inherantly funny, and I can’t see it working very well if they take themselves too seriously, but maybe that’s just me. We’ll find out Fall 2010 at the earliest.

i would like to audition for the new chuckster movie. Send me info cause i wanna be in it! Oh and the original voice of charles lee ray aka chucky would be hard to replace. Its what makes chucky…..
can i be in the movie.
i think the movies are awsome.
would the same story plot be in this movie the mom buys the toy behind a building? they should make it like in the trunk of a mans car!!! cant wait!!!! + i want to be in it!!!!
you are an idiot. the first 3 were best, bride of chucky was doable. seed SUCKED.
WHAT!!!!!! what do they mean by no commedy like come on who can forget when chucky and his bride want to get it on and the have plastic privates!!!! thats hillarious!!!!! and i cant watch it if there is absoulte no comedy!!!! pleas reconsider!!!
Please to goodness that this brand new chucky remake will be a whole lot different and better than the last ones to date so far. Bride of Chucky is the only one that stills out better than the other rest also included I think.
remake a chucky movie!? r the producers insane?
they were such big hits because of there comedy as well as horror.
like wat was the last chuky movie uuuurm……..seed of chuky i think or was it bride? any ways it should be a series remaking it to a full on horror is like remakin ur fav film pimp slappin u in the face then bonkin ur gf….lol
if it cant be stopped were do i sign up to be in the movie? lol
Its agood thing that they are taking the old and making it new with chucky besides im pretty sure it will be scary im mean the first three were scary. but there is just on question that is really bugging me is it going to have the same story plot but with new people
and also there has been alot of talking of a leprechaun vs chucky, is that true or is it all trash talk from fans or the movie directors
who else better than brad dourif to voice chucky he is the reason i will be seeing the remake long live chucky heidy ho ha ha ha
50/50 on this remake. it won’t be as catch as the first four. I thought it was funny more than frighting… it’s just the way they kill off their prey funny as hell when you think about it. looking at how they did it then and look at films today.
Remake, gets my seal of approval…I grew up watching the first film..going to the movies to see the second and third film…These movies were sick…lol..When I was like 5 or 6, I couldnt turn my lights off, cause I thought chucky was underneath the bed…lmao..good stuff…serious, HORROR AND SUSPENSE…All The Way!!!!!!! No comedy, maybe some dark humor, but thats it!!! This New Chucky Gets My Approval…U Should Get Rob Zombie To Do It…hehe
I agree with you but not with rob zombie, if he did it I would not like it what so ever. Seed Of Chucky Was A Big Mistake. I want things to be the way they use to be. dark humor is ok. but seed just had to much humor. its was f**king stupid as hell
Or The very First Director of the first Childs Play film….
Chucky is tight ass hell, except the last movie Seed of Chucky really sucked. But before that Bride and the other movies were awsome cant wait to see this movie, but just hope they dont f*** it up with too much visual effects.
hi guyes im cefo im very like chucky movie and alwys see this movie and i wish more new parts from movie special his ass
