Compared to the classic Child’s Play, which revealed the iconic Chucky character to the world, M3GAN has gained a lot of traction among horror fans and promises to cause a stir with its bloody and frightening story, in which a robot doll is created through sophisticated artificial intelligence. However, everything goes wrong when the item rebels and begins to exercise its own will.

Who commented more on the theme of the production was the actress Allison Williams, who, in the work, plays Gemma, creator of M3GAN. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, she revealed that, to live the character, who is a roboticist, she needed to talk to professionals in the field, including engineers, AI experts, among others.
“I understood almost nothing of what they told me. I asked them about what it’s like to be a woman in this area where there are a lot of men. I wanted to know what clothes to wear and how to wear them. Do you choose to be super feminine? Do you wear makeup? From the questions shallow to the deepest of why you got into this field. What motivated you? Did you have role models? It was great,” said Allison.

In the horror film’s story, Gemma (Allison) creates M3GAN to keep her niece Cady (Violet McGraw) company, of whom she now has custody. Trying to balance her professional and personal life, she brings the doll to life so that her niece doesn’t feel alone.
Remembering that the film already made its debut in the United States on January 6th and, for now, has been a box office success. In North American cinemas, the collection forecast for the opening weekend was between US$ 17 and 20 million. Although, M3GAN made $30 million.
The production was also praised by most specialized critics and, until the production of this text, had 94% critical approval and 79% positive reviews from the audience on the Rotten Tomatoes website.
