While we continue waiting for Don Mancini‘s “Chucky” television series, coming to SYFY and USA this Fall, first up SYFY is celebrating the franchise with a special marathon this week.

In honor of Pride Month, SYFY will be airing the all-day “The Pride of Chucky” Marathon on Wednesday, June 9, calling attention to the franchise’s LGBTQ+ elements.

“Starting with Bride of Chucky, I started to deliberately inject some LGBTQ elements into the franchise,” Mancini explains. “As a gay guy, it’s something that’s increasingly important to me.”

Here’s the full “Pride of Chucky” schedule…

  • 8am EST – Child’s Play 2
  • 9:58am EST – Child’s Play 3
  • 12pm EST – Bride of Chucky
  • 2:02pm EST – Seed of Chucky
  • 4pm EST – Curse of Chucky
  • 6pm EST – Cult of Chucky
  • 8pm EST – Child’s Play 2
  • 9:58pm EST – Child’s Play 3
  • 12am EST – Bride of Chucky
  • 2:02am EST – Seed of Chucky

The only film from the original franchise that’s not part of the marathon is director Tom Holland’s original classic, which is of course owned by MGM rather than Universal Pictures.

Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.

Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things),  Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.

The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).

Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.

Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.

Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.

In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
