Ed Gale, the actor best known for physically portraying the killer doll Chucky in the first two Child's Play films (1988, 1990) and Bride of Chucky (1998), has died at age 61. His niece, Kayse Gale, announced his "sudden passing" in a May 27 Facebook post, while TMZ reported he died in hospice in Los Angeles.
Gale began his career in 1986, playing the titular character in Howard the Duck before taking on the role of Chucky—a doll possessed by a serial killer—in the horror franchise. Though Brad Dourif provided Chucky’s voice, Gale’s physical performance brought the character to life. Director Tom Holland praised Gale’s work, saying he "played an important role in helping me sell the action of Chucky."
In April 2023, Gale faced controversy after admitting to soliciting minors for sex in an online sting by Creep Catchers Unit. The case was referred to the L.A. City Attorney’s Office but never prosecuted before his death.
Some things take care of themselves.
