Fiona Dourif Interview: The Pitt, Her Chucky Legacy & The 10-Year Rule for Actors

Collider Ladies Night & Collider Forces

Collider Ladies Night continues to highlight one of the best ensembles on television right now, the cast of HBO Max's The Pitt. In recent weeks, we’ve had conversations with Shabana Azeez and Katherine LaNasa, and now it’s time to turn to Fiona Dourif to cover what’s happening in Season 2 through Episode 12, “6:00 PM.”


During her full Ladies Night chat, we discussed Dourif’s experience deciding to become a professional actor and first starting to make a living pursuing that dream at 34. She also delved into her journey with the Child’s Play franchise (and her potential future in it), before turning to her work playing Dr. McKay in The Pitt. Dourif revealed some of her own personal backstory for the character, spoke about McKay’s Episode 12 conversation with Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle) when she senses something’s off with him, and also took a moment to address the show’s ICE storyline.
