- Five Nights at Freddy‘s 2 has an official trailer
- The horror movie is confirmed to be released in cinemas on December 5
- Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Lail and Matthew Lilard reprise their roles from the first movie
The Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 official trailer has been released ahead of the sequel movie’s cinema premiere on December 5. The upcoming new movie has, strangely, bypassed the Halloween release window, so fans will have to wait until closer to the festive season.
The sequel is set to unleash more animatronics out into the wild than the first Five Nights at Freddy‘s did, as it will take us beyond Freddy Fazbear’s pizzeria – and notably, Scott Cawthon is involved in adapting the screenplay again.
Looking at the trailer, fans can expect Easter eggs and some new faces – or lack thereof – when it comes to Withered Bonnie, the broken rabbit animatronic from the second game.
What is Five Night’s at Freddy’s 2 about?
Set a year after the first Five Nights at Freddy‘s movie, the official plot synopsis teases that the stories of the pizzeria have been “twisted into a campy local legend, inspiring the town’s first-ever Fazfest”.
So yep, you guessed it, people have developed a morbid fascination with what went down and now there’s a festival dedicated to the creepy animatronics, which totally isn’t a recipe for disaster or anything.
We’ll once again follow former security guard Mike and police officer Vanessa, who are doing everything they can to protect Mike’s 11-year-old sister Abby. But when Abby sneaks out to try and see the animatronics again, she “reveals dark secrets about the true origin of Freddy’s, and unleashing a long-forgotten horror hidden away for decades”.
Not a bad way to continue the story, in my opinion, but despite the last movie being Peacock’s biggest ever launch, it was a critical flop, so there’s a chance I’ll stick to playing the games instead.
