It looks like Chucky Season 4 won't be happening after all. Creator Don Mancini revealed in a statement that the horror-comedy series starring the killer doll will be ending after three seasons after USA and Syfy declined to renew it. “I’m heartbroken over the news that ‘Chucky’ won’t be coming back for a fourth season, but am so grateful for the killer three years we did have,” Mancini said in a statement sent to THR .
“I’d like to thank UCP/SYFY/Peacock/Eat the Cat, our awesome cast and Toronto-based crew (the best in the business), and finally, to our amazing fans, a big bloody hug. Your incredible #RenewChucky campaign really warmed Chucky’s cold heart. Chucky will return! He ALWAYS comes back.
” Jennifer Tilly also paid tribute to Chucky, "We’re really proud of our show. It has been a wonderful miracle working with this talented cast and crew. We were very lucky to have the leadership of our brilliant captain Don Mancini.
But (to quote Call of Duty) we are 'down but not out.' Resurrections are Chucky’s specialties and he has many of them!" So sad to announce that after three wonderful seasons the television series “Chucky” has finally been canceled. First I’d like to think our fans, who managed to keep the #RenewChucky hashtag trending for MONTHS! Without your loyalty and tenacity Chucky would never have.
..— Jennifer Tilly (@JenniferTilly) September 27, 2024 Chucky originally premiered back in 2021, with the second part of its third and final season kicking off in 2024.
We wrote in our review of the premiere , "Chucky does a great job of translating the Child’s Play formula to television." Unfortunately for fans, Chucky Season 3 ended on a cliffhanger, and it's unclear whether it will ever resolved. Mancini apparently had several plans in mind for season 4 , but they'll have to wait for now.
