7 years after the series' last chronologically valid entry, Cult of Chucky, the franchise's creator, Don Mancini, has confirmed that a new entry is in development. Mancini has had a hand in every entry except for the 2019 reboot. Most recently, he was the director of Seed of Chucky (2004), Curse of Chucky (2013), and& Cult of Chucky (2017).
Chucky
, a show featuring the namesake dollified serial killer, is one of the biggest and most unlikely success stories on streaming platforms in recent years. After debuting in time for Halloween in 2021, the show has since been renewed for a third season. It's unclear if a fourth season is coming.
With only weeks to go before the Chucky returns on Syfy and the USA Network on April 10, Mancini got on the Scream Dream podcast where he revealed that he's working on two new things: a new pilot and a new Chucky movie.
