Aubrey Plaza (Legion) and Emmy nominee Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta) are in talks to star as the leads in the remake of the classic killer doll story, Child’s Play, Collider has confirmed.
The remake from MGM and director Lars Klevberg (Polaroid) will completely redo the killer doll’s origin.
The outlet notes that Plaza will play the mother in the new movie, with Henry likely portraying the detective though his role has not yet been confirmed.
So, it’s essential that MGM separated their Chucky from the one audiences have known since the late 1980s.
