Yesterday we got our first full, official look at the Chucky doll that will be featured in the upcoming CHILD'S PLAY remake, but today Chucky has stepped back out of frame for the new poster that has arrived online courtesy of IGN. In this poster, which can be seen below, we're only shown one of Chucky's arms… but in his hand he has a knife that he's raising over a person who's asleep in their bed, so it still manages to be an interesting image even though there's only a bit of Chucky in it.
Directed by Lars Klevberg from a screenplay by Tyler Burton Smith, the CHILD'S PLAY remake stars Aubrey Plaza and Gabriel Bateman in the story of
a mother who gives her son a toy doll for his birthday, unaware of its more sinister nature.
Brian Tyree Henry, Beatrice Kitsos, Ty Consiglio, and Carlease Burke are also in the cast, with Mark Hamill providing the voice of Chucky, who is a doll inhabited by an A.I. gone wrong this time around.
This new take on CHILD'S PLAY was produced by David Katzenberg and Seth Grahame-Smith through their company KatzSmith Productions. MGM subsidiary Orion Pictures will be releasing the film through their United Artists Releasing banner on June 21st.
A new trailer will be released tomorrow. IGN got an exclusive look at a 10 second preview of that trailer.
