WWE Superstar Liv Morgan joins Chucky for a murderous Season 2 guest spot.
The former SmackDown Women's Champion told Syfy that she will make a guest appearance on the Child's Play legacy series for Episode 4 of Season 2, "Death on Denial." As a major fan of the killer doll and horror movies in general, it is Morgan's dream to be Chucky's latest victim on-screen. "I want Chucky to kill me," Morgan said.
"It's a dream. I don't want a starring role. I don't want to lead. I just want to be... brutally murdered by Chucky."
Morgan made her WWE debut as a member of the NXT roster in 2014. After three years in the developmental brand, Morgan was called up to the main roster on the Raw brand to be a member of the Riott Squad with Sarah Logan and current AEW star Ruby Soho. The heel trio was dissolved in 2019 after Morgan was moved from Raw to SmackDown as part of the Superstar Shake-Up.
Morgan's initial singles run saw her feud with Lana and eventually Ruby before they made amends to reunite as a tag team. After the Riott Squad dissolved again, Morgan worked her way up the card until she engaged in high profile feud with megastar Becky Lynch and became a serious title contender. She went on to win the Women's Money in the Bank briefcase in 2021 and successfully cashed it in that same night to beat Ronda Rousey for the SmackDown Women's Championship.
The Adventures of Chucky Continue
Created by Don Mancini and launched in 2021, Chucky serves as a continuation of 1988's Child's Play and its sequels, Child's Play 2, Child's Play 3, Bride of Chucky, Seed of Chucky, Curse of Chucky and Cult of Chucky. The series sees the killer doll purchased at a yard sale by New Jersey teenager Jake Wheeler (Zackary Arthur) as part of his art project. Then a string of mysterious murders in town that involve Chucky turns Jake into a prime suspect in the incidents. Chucky Season 2 sees Jake and his friends Devon (Björgvin Arnarson) and Lexy (Alyvia Alyn Lind) get sent to the Catholic School of the Incarnate Lord where Chucky's killer alter ego, Charles Lee Ray, grew up.
While Morgan's guest starring role remains undisclosed, Episode 4 will include a homage to co-star Jennifer Tilly's 1996 movie Bound. The episode will see Tilly reunite with co-stars Gina Gershon and Joe Pantoliano. "In Episode 4, we do an homage to Bound," Tilly said during the Chucky presentation at the 2022 New York Comic-Con. "Gina and Joey, they're both in love with me! Don't you think that's fabulous?"
New episodes of Chucky air on Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on SYFY and USA Network.
