It’s about to be a long, tough night at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. Universal and Blumhouse have revealed another trailer for Five Nights at Freddy’s, the next video game adaptation looking to score big at the box office. The film stars Josh Hutcherson as a troubled security guard at a family pizza and entertainment joint. He soon discovers that the night shift…well, it really sucks, as the four mascot animatronics come to life and start killing people.
The film is based on the hit video game franchise created by Scott Cawthorn, who is also aboard as screenwriter. Hutcherson is joined in the cast by Matthew Lillard, Elizabeth Lail, Mary Stuart Masterson, and Piper Rubio.
Behind the camera is Emma Tammi, whose 2018 supernatural horror The Wind put her on the map. If this film is a hit, too, expect Blumhouse to come calling with even bigger projects and more potential horror franchises.
In this trailer we get a look at all four creepy mascots: Freddy, Foxy, Chica, and Bunny, all created by the folks at Jim Henson’s Creature Shop. That explains why they’re so terrifying.
Five Nights at Freddy’s hits theaters and Peacock on October 27th.
