Movieweb is reporting that MGM has cleared up rights issues and are moving forward on development of a remake to the horror franchise Child’s Play:
Production is said to begin on the remake sometime later this year, with Brad Dourif returning to voice Chucky. This new project is said to be more of a reboot, with a darker tone and less comedic elements (what’s more funny than a Cabbage Patch doll trying to kill a kid, though?). However, none of this has been confirmed at this time.
