The Five Nights at Freddy’s movie sequel is apparently going to be “bigger” and “scarier,” which sounds like a recipe for giving your kids another nightmare.
Unless you’re under 13, I wouldn’t necessarily consider the first Five Nights at Freddy’s movie to be particularly scary, but I will admit that there are a few scenes that may be a bit overwhelming for younger viewers. However, in a recent interview with Esquire magazine, the film’s star Josh Hutcherson said the sequel is “bigger and riskier.” He went on to explain: “More animatronics are being introduced, different animatronics are being introduced, the world is opening up in a bigger way.

“We’re finding that balance right now to build and expand this world in a really cool way while making sure the characters stay really grounded. I really think that’s what we were striving for in the first movie because of this The world that was created in “Five Nights at Freddy’s” is so over-the-top and wacky in a way that I think fans will struggle to find the emotional truth of the characters, and it will actually become that. More fun.”
Hutcherson was also asked if there was the potential for more film adaptations beyond the next one, to which the actor responded: “You never know. I mean, I love working in this world. Our director Al Ma Tammy is great and my character, Mike, I think the possibilities are endless and could be fun, but right now we’re looking at the second movie and we’ll see what happens after that.”
“Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” is still about a year away from release and is currently expected to be released in the fall of 2025, but a specific release date has not yet been announced.
