The Big Picture It’s fair to say that after seven movies, and three seasons of TV, the Chucky franchise would be very different if the killer doll wasn’t voiced by Brad Dourif. Horror fans already know what can happen when an iconic monster loses its established actor. There is no Freddy Krueger without Robert Englund, even though Jackie Earle Haley infamously tried.

‘The Exorcist’ and ‘Child’s Play’ Almost Shared What Made Their Monsters Scary Don Mancini explained the director’s choice in a Movieweb interview, and why it might have worked, “-- Holland’s brilliant idea was that since a woman, Mercedes McCambridge, had so successfully provided the voice of Satan in The Exorcist, then it was only logical that a woman should provide the voice of Chucky.

One Actor Who Almost Voiced Chucky Was in Another Horror Classic Holland tried John Franklin, whose involvement would have given him another horror credit. He’s known for his role in Children of the Corn , adapted from Stephen King’s short story, in which the children of a rural Nebraska town kill all the parents to please the entity, “He Who Walks Behind the Rows.” All of this is started by little Isaac . Although he came onto Child’s Play to record the lines, a decision was made to scrap it.
