Speaking at the recentChild ’s Playpress conference , Mark Hamilladdressed the issue of why the franchise has been break the reboot treatment and why his interpretation of Chucky differentiates itself from the classic incarnation . Hamill states :
" They sent me the script , and I thought the crucial element that was different from the original – which I liked , and I ’m a huge fan of Brad [ Dourif ] ’s interpretation – is in this one , Chucky has a unlike origin . So , it ’s not the soul of a serial killer , [ it ’s ] that someone deliberately goes in and alters his operating system and takes off the safety measure . So , he was really like an innocuous child , really just learn from what go on around him . That was of the essence … Also , the eld of the boy ; he was like 5 or 6 [ in the master copy ] . Gabriel plays a fictitious character who ’s a unseasoned teenager , and that was a fundamental difference from the original . "
With the original series ofChild ’s Playfilms still relatively fresh and a idiot box series on the room , it ’s hugely reassuring that this new version of the story is taking a different approaching , order its own tailspin on the characters and backstory . Hamill is also correct in his affirmation that the difference made by Klevberg ’s flick are game - change adjustment that bring out an exclusively new side to the Chucky tale . metre will tell whether those originative changes are enough to convince horror fans to revisit a franchise that , up until latterly , look to have its best days behind it .
