Jennifer Tilly on bringing Tiffany character back to life in ‘Chucky’ – National

Jennifer Tilly has been a successful actor for decades now, and somehow one of her most prominent characters is the Child’s Play franchise’s Tiffany — a sometimes-doll, sometimes-human woman.

Now starring in Chucky, the TV adaptation of the multi-movie series, Tilly is back as Tiffany for more out-there, horrific shenanigans.

On the show, a once-idyllic American town is thrown into chaos after a vintage Chucky doll turns up at a yard sale, leading to a series of grisly murders. Before long, the doll’s “girlfriend,” Tiffany, is also back on the scene, making things even more nightmarish.

Global News sat down to talk to an energetic Tilly, who’s thrilled to bring the character, ahem, back to life.
