Is don mancini gay

Hey, hey, hey, a wild ride is on the way with this episode of Guilty Pleasures! Join Stephanie, Jack, and Kelly as they take a bite out of the bizarre and bewildering musical oddity, The Apple. Set in a dystopian where the music industry reigns supreme, this film is a kaleidoscope of disco, biblical allegories, and questionable songwriting that gives your hosts plenty to talk about… but is any of it GOOD?

Chucky’s Gay Creator Don Mancini on His Queerest Project Yet

I had been aware, partly through his own statements, but also just stuff that would be out there in the press when he would do his Christmas shows for example, that he remained a fan of the character and was a fan of the show. A kind of dark Willy Wonka figure.

LGBTQ+ Themes in the “Chucky” Franchise

Mancini is one of few openly gay writers and directors of a film within the slasher sub-genre. While this may not be overtly apparent in his earlier works, it has become a key factor for the Child's Play franchise overall, and more so in the first movie as it has aged. On his sixth birthday, Karen purchases a Good Guy doll that goes by the name Chucky.

Screen Rant

As fans of the franchise know, Chucky is the parent to a queer kid, who was introduced in Seed of Chucky. And one of our goals with the show is to make people not only scream and not only laugh in the expected ways, but they might also find themselves shedding a tear as well.
