The Perfect Setup For Chucky Vs Freddy Kreuger Already Happened In 2021
Don Mancini, creator of the Child's Play series, has wanted to do a Chucky vs Freddy Kreuger (the latter from A Nightmare On Elm Street) movie for a long time — whether its showrunners know it or not, 2021's Chucky TV show has provided the perfect setup for this crossover. It makes sense to do this while Chucky is still in the public eye. Though the original Freddy hasn't featured in a film since 2003's Freddy Vs.

He was last seen in 2003's Freddy Vs. Jason putting his finger-knives to use on the hulking, hockey-masked murderer from the Friday The 13th series of films.
