You’d be mistaken if you believed the people behind the forthcoming second season of Chucky on SYFY and USA Network were finished advertising it. Just this past week, viewers have been treated to the Season 2 teaser and poster, and now, we can have a look at some brand new stills from upcoming episodes. From photographs of newcomer Nadine (Bella Higginbotham) to Devon Sawa’s return as a priest à la American Horror Story, these previews have it all! Following the events of Season 1, our main characters Jake Wheeler (Zackary Arthur), Devon Evans (Björgvin Arnarson), and Lexy Cross (Alyvia Alyn Lind) are sent to a catholic reformatory school.
There, they will run across the titular killer doll again as he watches over his prey. The photos show the main protagonists dressed in school uniforms and appearing just as terrified as they did before when they first learned that the Good Guys Doll had become possessed. In another scene from “Halloween II,” Lexy restrains the Tiffany doll by tying her to a chair. While that was going on, we got a nice glimpse at Sawa, who was murdered twice in the first season, this time with his thick-framed glasses and clerical garb. Jake and Devon’s growing romance, which drove most of the first season’s plot, is likewise likely to be a major theme this year.
The latest batch of photos doesn’t showcase their relationship too often, although there is a touching scene between them in “The Sinners Are Much More Fun.” Jennifer Tilly as Tiffany Valentine and Lachlan Watson as Chucky and Tiffany’s son Glen/daughter Glenda have both been heavily teased in the trailers and plenty of images published by Tilly over the last weeks and months, but they were not included in this set of shots. Tilly’s close pals will also make an appearance as guests this season.
Sister and Oscar nominee Meg Tilly, co-stars Joe Pantoliano and Gina Gershon, and close friend and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills actress Sutton Stracke will all be there. Brad Dourif and Fiona Dourif, Alex Vincent and Christine Elise, and Barbara Alyn Woods are all scheduled to return. Both Tony Nappo (Saw II) and Lara Jean Chorostecki (NBC’s Hannibal) will be joining the cast for the first time.
