Matthew Lillard recently gave a Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 update, revealing what fans might be able to expect from the sequel to the hit horror movie.

What did Matthew Lillard say about Five Nights at Freddy’s 2?

Speaking to ComingSoon, Lillard was asked about the 2023 film’s success and what it means for the next one. Lillard mentioned that the storytelling for the sequel will be “amped up a lot,” and that despite a raised budget, it still won’t be anywhere in the range of other blockbusters.

“I think the storytelling’s been amped up a lot,” said Lillard. “I don’t feel like the budget’s gone through the roof. There are $250 million, $300 million movies out there, $500 million movies. I mean, God knows what Avengers cost, but we are certainly not that. We’re still sort of an independent little horror movie.”

Lillard also said that the sequel’s script once again is something the community of fans will be proud of, and teased that fans can expect even “more jump scares” and action.

“But I do think that the movie learned first time around, I think Scott, as a primary storyteller, listened to the audience,” Lillard explained. “[It’s] what he does best. He knows that community so well. And I think that he’s responded with a script that… maybe it has more jump scares. Maybe it’s a little more action-packed. I don’t know. I’m not here to say ‘yes it is’, or ‘no it’s not.’ But I do think the fans are gonna love this next movie, and I think that they’re gonna be really excited come December.”

The first Five Nights at Freddy’s film released in October 2023, and was a massive success for Universal Pictures. The movie grossed over $297 million at the global box office, and became Blumhouse’s highest-grossing film worldwide.
