The “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” movie has an estimated release date!
The popular first film that hit theaters on Oct. 25, 2023. It was met with low reviews from critics and decent reviews from the general public.
Now the series is getting its second installment, estimated to be on Dec. 5, 2025. This is when the studio is hoping to get the film out, but that could ultimately change with production or potential delays.
Scott Cawthon, the creator of the game series, also tweeted on his Scottgames account on Aug. 8 four pictures regarding the screenplay for the film, stating that one is real and the other three are fake.
According to the movie’s IMDb page, there are only four people listed in the cast so far, all being from the first movie: Matthew Lillard as William Afton, Josh Hutcherson as Mike Schmidt, Elizabeth Lail as Vanessa, and Piper Rubio as Abby. The movie is in pre-production, so changes could be made in the future but for now, it is fan speculation of who else might appear in the film.
I enjoyed the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” movie, so news of the sequel does make me feel excited for next year.
