This June will bring us a remake of Child’s Play, a move that has divided many long-time fans of the franchise. A new trailer recently showed off more of the film, but it’s about time for further previews to begin trickling out as we approach its upcoming summer release date.
Fortunately, Fandango has us covered in its 2019 Summer Movie Preview, which included a brand-new image from the film. In the shot, Chucky is playing a board game with Andy, like the true best friend he is promising to be. Have a look at the photo below.
In Child’s Play, a mother gives her son a toy doll for his birthday, unaware of its more sinister nature. The cast includes Aubrey Plaza (Parks and Recreation, Legion) as the mother, Karen, Gabriel Bateman (Light’s Out) as her son, Andy, and Brian Tyree Henry (Atlanta) as Greg, a detective who will be investigating the mysterious deaths surrounding the doll. Chucky is voiced by the legendary Mark Hamill.
The film is directed by Lars Klevberg, who is known for his horror film, Polaroid, with a script penned by Quantum Break and Kung Fury 2 writer Tyler Burton Smith. KatzSmith Productions’ David Katzenberg and Seth Grahame-Smith (Stephen King's It) are on board as producers with the film slated to arrive early this summer on June 21st, 2019.
