In the upcoming “Chucky” Season 2, Lachlan Watson (“Chilling Adventures of Sabrina”) will be playing returning character Glen/Glenda, Bloody Disgusting recently learned.

Meg Tilly (Psycho 2, Body Snatchers), Gina Gershon (Bound, Killer Joe), Joe Pantoliano (Memento), Tony Nappo (Saw II), and Sutton Stracke (“Real Housewives”) also star.

Brad Dourif and Jennifer Tilly will both be back for “Chucky” Season 2, with returning cast also including Zackary Arthur as Jake Wheeler, Björgvin Arnarson as Devon Evans, Alyvia Alyn Lind as Lexy Cross, Fiona Dourif as Nica Pierce, Alex Vincent as Andy Barclay, Christine Elise as Kyle and Barbara Alyn Woods as Mayor Michelle Cross.

Devon Sawa will be playing a new character in the second season, with Lara Jean Chorostecki (NBC’s “Hannibal”) more recently signing on in an undisclosed role.

For the first season, Brad Dourif returned as Chucky and Tilly as Tiffany, which continued the storylines from the *original* movies and their recent sequels, Curse and Cult of Chucky.

“Chucky” has been described as a “fresh take on the franchise” that “explores Chucky’s character with a depth that is uniquely afforded by the television series format.”

“Chucky” is a continuation of the iconic film franchise chronicling the murderous escapades of the notorious killer doll. In the TV series, Chucky crosses paths with archenemies, old allies and new prey, as he seeks to inspire fear and mayhem wherever he goes. After his diabolical plan to invade America’s children’s hospitals was foiled in season one, Chucky now seeks revenge on those he holds responsible: surviving teens Jake (Zackary Arthur), Devon (Björgvin Arnarson) and Lexy (Alyvia Alyn Lind), along with his ex Tiffany, now his sworn enemy.

“Chucky” is produced by UCP, a division of Universal Studio Group, and executive produced by creator Don Mancini, David Kirschner, Nick Antosca, Alex Hedlund and Harley Peyton.

James Wan‘s Atomic Monster To Develop Horror Indie Game ‘Pacific Drive’ into TV Series

Ironwood Studios’ supernatural survival title Pacific Drive became a surprise hit upon release earlier this year. Now, Variety reports that James Wan’s Atomic Monster production company has acquired rights to develop Pacific Drive into a TV series.

The game created by Cassandra Dracott is “a retropunk-style driving and survival game set to an experimental electronic music soundtrack that challenges players to escape a surreal and abandoned exclusion zone with their car as their only companion in the dark and chilling world.”

The survival-horror driving sim puts players behind the wheel of a quirky station wagon stranded in a supernaturally-afflicted version of 1990s Cascadia, with players dealing with radioactive storms, sentient dumpsters and other dangerous anomalies.

James Wan and Atomic Monster’s Michael Clear and Rob Hackett will executive produce the TV series adaptation of the project along with Jeff Ludwig of The Menagerie Productions. The series has not been picked up by a streamer or network as of yet, but it’s still early in the development process.

Luis H.C. wrote in his 4-star review of the game, “It’s not just the mechanics that suck you in, however. From the heavily stylized recreation of the Pacific Northwest wilderness to the moody radio that keeps you company as you travel on lonely roads, it’s really easy to engage with this interactive master-class in atmosphere despite the general lack of traditional action.” And, “Of course, it’s often said that the greatest thing a work of art can do is leave you wanting more, and that is certainly the case with Pacific Drive.”

Fresh from being earning a nomination from The Game Awards this year, Pacific Drive most recently released a free Winter update package for fans.

The news comes on the heels of Atomic Monster’s “Teacup” that premiered this Fall, and the production company is already hard at work on “The Munsters” reboot series “1313.”

Stay tuned for additional details on Pacific Drive as they arrive.
