‘Toy Story’ fights back against Chucky in revenge-fueled fan art

The mutant toys of Toy Story have clapped back at the Child’s Play posters showing Chucky terrorizing Toy Story 4 characters.

To backtrack, both the horror reboot and Toy Story 4 hit theaters this weekend, and Child’s Play had to put out one more freaky poster to convince us to head to theaters one way or another.

The new poster shows Chucky torturing beloved dinosaur Rex with a lighter, completely burning his head off. It’s just one of many of the characters from Toy Story that Chucky has harmed. Others including Woody, Buzz and more.

“Because friendship never goes extinct. Don’t miss Child’s Play, stomping through theaters starting this Thursday night,” the caption to the latest poster reads.

You can see all the posters below.

Now, artist Jason A. Messina has imagined what it would be like if some of the toys just fought back.

“I made this @toystory clapback poster in response to the posters of the new @ChildsPlayMovie Chucky killing Woody, Buzz, etc. & while those posters are really great, it seemed fitting that the “storyline” would continue w/ the Mutant Toys getting some much deserved revenge,” Messina wrote on Twitter.

So cool.

The reboot, based on the 1988 slasher flick, will see a number of changes to Chucky who will not be a haunted serial killer doll but instead an artificial intelligence that’s conceited into Chucky’s character.

Director Lars Klevberg intends to use more humane characteristics that are “understandable from his point of view but also to us,” in addition to Chucky’s AI rework. The idea originated from Greek tragedies and Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, which he claims as his key inspiration for the film.
