We weren’t expecting two Chucky series updates at the same time today. In an exclusive report by TV Line, actress Barbara Alyn Woods has joined the cast of the show as Mayor Michelle Cross.
Her character description is as follows:
[M]aintaining Hackensack’s safe image with the rising tide of mysterious violence, […] she has no idea has been caused by a child’s doll. Michelle is also concerned for her two young daughters Lexy and Caroline.
Woods is the mother of Alyvia Alyn Lind, who also plays her daughter on the show. The actress has been in several films in the 1990s and has played various television roles since 1988. She appeared in Disney’s Honey, I Shrunk the Kids series from 1997 to 2000 and in The WB/The CW’s One Tree Hill from 2003 to 2012. With the addition of Woods’s character into the show, who knows what chaotic things will happen!
The Child’s Play franchise creator himself, Don Mancini, took to Twitter not too long ago to congratulate the actress on being cast. Earlier today, Lexa Doig was also cast in the series.
Chucky begins production this spring and is set to air later this fall on the USA and SYFY television channels!
