Meet the characters from Chucky

Jake Wheeler

Okay, Jake is like the emotional core who also punches things when words fail — teenage artist, furious protector, and honestly, a little dramatic in the best way. He sketches endlessly (in class, on napkins, during detention — it’s a thing) and also somehow remembers obscure horror movie trivia while crying over his feelings, which is peak Jake. He gets pulled into chaos but is fiercely loyal, stubborn as heck, and way more complicated than his hoodie lets on. Also random fact: insists he hates candy but will demolish a whole bag of sour gummies at 2 a.m., don’t ask why.

Devon Evans

Devon is the brainy, steady contrast to the chaos — calm, smart, moral compass-ish, but not a robot; he has jokes, he flirts low-key, and he gets snarky in exactly the right moments. He’s the friend who thinks two steps ahead and tries to keep things grounded (and fails sometimes because feelings are messy), plus he actually cares about other people’s playlists, which is adorable. There’s a quieter courage to him that sneaks up on you — thoughtful, loyal, and the kind of person who makes impossible plans and then pulls them off. Also, slight contradiction: claims to hate attention but will absolutely perform dramatic monologues in the grocery aisle if provoked.

Lexy Cross

Lexy is the queen bee turned complicated moral puzzle — all confidence, killer style, and social status, but with secret layers that make you root for her (even when she’s kind of infuriating). She’s fiercely ambitious, a little ruthless, loves being in control, and then will have this tiny vulnerable moment that ruins your whole plan to hate her. She posts for the applause but sometimes actually listens, which is wild, and she has weirdly specific skincare rituals that she swears by like it’s a religion. Also, she says she hates old movies but can recite black-and-white dialogue like a pro — contradictions, yes, but fabulous.

Junior Wheeler

Junior is the classic tough older-brother bro — jock energy, loud, sometimes clueless, but protective in the way that makes you roll your eyes and also breathe easier. He’s got the bravado and the one-liners, loves the glory, but also has these brief, baffling moments of tenderness (like when he’ll fix a lamp at midnight or… adopt a stray squirrel? Maybe.). He can be a little stuck in his ways and unbelievably stubborn, but he’s also the kind of guy who would literally step between danger and people he cares about, so he’s not all surface. Also, tiny weird detail: hoards vintage baseball cards and will solemnly explain each one like it’s a funeral — oddly sweet.

Chucky

Chucky is chaos in a button-eyed, short-statured package — hilarious, vicious, and shamelessly theatrical, with a million one-liners and a taste for dramatic entrances. He’s the mastermind of mayhem, a tiny terror who loves to manipulate, torment, and generally make every plan unnecessarily personal, but he’s also delightfully petty in the best way. There’s this insane charisma to him — you sort of can’t look away even when you should — and he’s obsessed with pop culture minutiae, which makes his evil so weirdly entertaining. Also, shocking but true: he’s equal parts gentlemanly and murderous, like he’ll open a door for you and then monologue about your impending doom.
