‘Imaginary’ – Star DeWanda Wise Reveals What Scares Her Most [Interview]
DeWanda Wise (Jurassic World Dominion) doesn’t just star in upcoming horror movie Imaginary but executive produces as well. In an interview with Bloody Disgusting, the actor explains what drew her to the project, and she also reveals her personal biggest fear.
Spoiler alert: It’s not a creepy teddy bear coming to life…
DeWanda Wise plays Jessica in the film, but behind the scenes the actor collaborated with director Jeff Wadlow and beyond, including working with costume designer Eulyn Colette Hufkie. Color is important to the world of Imaginary, with blue signaling the imaginary world of the Never Ever. But color was also important to Wise for her character’s wardrobe.

Imaginary releases in theaters on March 8, 2024.
In Imaginary, “Jessica moves back into her childhood home with her family. Her youngest stepdaughter Alice develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chauncey she finds in the basement. Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and become increasingly sinister. As Alice’s behavior becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes only to realize Chauncey is much more than the stuffed toy bear she believed him to be.”
Blumhouse’s Jason Blum produced, with Jeff Wadlow (Cry Wolf, Kick-Ass 2, Truth or Dare, Fantasy Island, The Curse of Bridge Hollow) producing and directing.
The film also stars Tom Payne, Taegen Burns, Pyper Braun, Veronica Falcon, and Betty Buckley. The screenplay is by Jeff Wadlow & Greg Erb & Jason Oremland.

‘Chucky’ – Brad Dourif, Fiona Dourif, and Alex Vincent Reunite to Talk the Past and Tease the Future [Video]
Who doesn’t love a good ol’ family reunion?
At Creep I.E. Con Aftermath, horror icons Brad Dourif, Fiona Dourif, and Alex Vincent sat down with Bloody Disgusting’s Shelby Novak (of Scare You to Sleep) and Michael Roffman (of Halloweenies) to discuss the past, present, and definitive future of the Chucky franchise.
Now, you can watch the full panel below.
The three share hilarious personal anecdotes about what it’s been like growing up together with Chucky in their lives. They also digress on the elasticity of the series and why they’re game for anything Don Mancini throws their way. Speaking of which, there is also a tease of what’s to come.
The video was directed and edited by Matt Sampere with Diandra Lazor.
