June 5, 2019 David Gonzalez Film News, Reel Coming Soon, Reel Movies, Reel Talk Inc, Reel Trailers Comments Off on Child’s Play’sFirst Listen Of Mark Hamill As Chucky Released

On Tuesday, the first preview of Mark Hamill as the voice of the Chucky was released. While I have yet to attain any excitement for the upcoming films release, the idea of Hamill as Chucky is somewhat interesting.

Outside his work in Star Wars, Hamill is a renowned voice actor, most notably for portraying Batman’s Joker in film (Batman: Mask of the Phantasm), on TV (Batman: The Animated Series) and in video games (The Arkham series).

The minute-long clip shows Chucky hunting Andy Barclay (Gabriel Bateman).

 

The upcoming reboot will have some significant differences from the horror classic, but one aspect remains: Chucky will be a practical creation, not total CGI.

Producer David Katzenberg previously said a practical doll was necessary to do the film.

“A big part of getting Chucky right was having animatronics be a lot of the times we see Chucky,”

Child’s Play hits theaters June 21.
