Universal Pictures and Blumhouse used the CCXP Mexico event on Sunday night to release the first poster for the “Five Nights at Freddy’s” sequel, which opens in cinemas on December 5th 2025.
The 2023 first film adaptation of the famed video game series from Scott Cawthon received generally negative reviews but was a major hit – grossing $297 million to become Blumhouse’s highest-grossing film to date.
It also set streaming records for Peacock where it simultaneously premiered. Josh Hutcherson starred as a troubled security guard who starts a job at an abandoned pizzeria and family entertainment center. There he discovers the animatronic mascots are possessed by homicidal children.
The sequel was shot in New Orleans over the New Year and is said to have much bigger stakes and a larger world. It also introduces the second game’s major antagonist Toy Freddy along with Balloon Boy. Further plot specifics are under wraps.
The event also announced that the franchise will be coming to Universal Halloween Horror Nights this year. More details on that will be available shortly.
Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio and Matthew Lillard co-star in the film, reprising their roles from the previous entry. Emma Tammi directs and co-wrote the script with Scott Cawthon and Seth Cuddeback.
