Try to tell the difference between Tiffany Valentine’s and Jennifer Tilly’s room. Chucky’s actor gave her Twitter followers a glimpse at the on-screen chamber, and it seems like Season 2 of the Syfy and USA series will be a true Tilly-filled treat. At the heart of it, all are blonde Tilly, who is decked up in a magnificent rose-covered outfit. A room full of artefacts from the actress’s career surrounds her. On a fireplace mantle, images and posters of Tilly in some of her most well-known roles are displayed neatly beside many accolades.
The fireplace is a temple to Tilly’s accomplishments, from Bullets Over Broadway to Bound and all in between and beyond. It’s no secret that Tilly has been exceedingly forthcoming with her fans about filming for the much-anticipated return of the horror film franchise turned television phenomenon, giving a large number of first views and behind-the-scenes glances at everything Chucky. Lachlan Watson (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina) will portray Glen/Glenda, Chucky and Tiffany’s child, in the upcoming film, and Meg Tilly, the actress’ real-life sister and a cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, will also appear in the film.
Gina Gershon and Joe Pantoliano, who starred in Tilly’s Bound, are also expected to make guest appearances during the show’s second season. Jake Wheeler (Zackary Arthur), a fresh adolescent who naively selected the doll for a school project, finds himself clinging to the doll following the events of the seventh film, Cult of Chucky. It’s nice to see so many old faces and voices returning to the scary fun, including Brad Dourif, Fiona Dourif, Alex Vincent and Christine Elise as well as new characters Arthur, Teo Briones and Alyvia Alyn Lind.
Along with the slasher scenes, the inaugural season also dealt with coming of age and coming out of the closet in a small community, which was a refreshing change. Child’s Play director Don Mancini has done an excellent job at introducing his characters to a new age while maintaining the integrity of his original work. The release date for Chucky Season 2 has not yet been revealed.
