The interview between Drew Barrymore and the film’s lead, Allison Williams, just became a whole lot more interesting thanks to Drew’s decision to dress up as killer doll M3GAN.
The film’s protagonist, roboticist Gemma (Allison), creates an artificial intelligence doll to be “a child’s best companion and a parent’s greatest ally,” but the doll goes too far in her protective duty.
After 47-year-old Drew decided it would be amusing to morph into the persona of Chucky, anyone who still gets the shivers at the notion of Chucky should probably look away.
She began the part dressed like the doll, complete with the iconic clothing, a blonde wig, and blue contact lenses.
She greeted the audience in a voice that was both welcoming and scary, saying, “Hi, I’m Megan and I’m a creepy doll, murder robot that has taken over the internet and movie screens and our next guest invented me.”
Allison seemed apprehensive to meet Drew as she came out and at first held back from him before ultimately leaning in for a hug.



She was overheard saying “oh my goodness” as her face fell during the hug.
As the conversation progressed, Drew maintained his character to inquire as to how Allison came to choose the term “M3GAN.”
In short order, however, things began to unravel when Drew/M3GAN revealed that she was having trouble acting because of the contact lenses.
‘I do feel like my eyeballs are falling apart,’ she said while trying to adjust them.
‘But then again, you could just take me to your workshop and fix me. Just after I kill the neighbour’s dog.’
Left speechless at several points Allison added: ‘I’m just continuing to adjust in real-time to this being the way this is happening…just to let you in [on] any lag in response time to your questions.’
Near the end of the session, Drew began to imitate M3EGAN’s floor-crawling dance.
She thanked her visitor for “going through with all that” before she finally removed the wig.
‘Even I didn’t know what the hell was happening.’
Some parts were cut so that the film could achieve a PG13 classification, and it has been called “bonkers yet wonderful” by critics since its debut earlier this month.
