Season One of Don Mancini‘s “Chucky” series is coming to Blu-ray here in the United States on April 12, 2022, but you might want to hold out for the UK edition of the release.

Over in the UK, “Chucky” Season 1 comes to Blu-ray in a special “Good Guys Edition,” which includes a lenticular slipcase, art cards, and a 32-page booklet. The special features are the same as the US release, including Deleted Scenes and a “Legacy of Chucky” featurette.

You can check out an image of the UK’s “Good Guys Edition” release of “Chucky” Season 1 below. The good news here? Amazon UK says the May 2, 2022 release is Region Free!

In the series, “After a vintage Chucky doll turns up at a suburban yard sale, an idyllic American town is thrown into chaos as a series of horrifying murders begin to expose the town’s hypocrisies and secrets. Meanwhile, the arrival of enemies — and allies — from Chucky’s past threatens to expose the truth behind the killings, as well as the demon doll’s untold origins as a seemingly ordinary child who somehow became this notorious monster.”

Brad Dourif is back as Chucky and Jennifer Tilly is back as Tiffany in “Chucky,” which will continue the storylines from the *original* movies and their recent sequels, Curse and Cult of Chucky. Also returning are Fiona Dourif as Nica Pierce, Alex Vincent as Andy Barclay, and Christine Elise as Kyle. Devon Sawa (Final Destination, Hunter Hunter) also stars.

“Chucky” is executive produced by Nick Antosca (“Channel Zero”).

Across all platforms, “Chucky” reached 9.5 million viewers in its first season. A second season of the series has already been ordered up, and it’s expected to begin sometime this year.
