Five Nights At Freddy's 2 Poster Unveiled at CCXP MX 2025
Freddy Fazbear and his deadly crew return in the first poster for Five Nights at Freddy's 2, reigniting the horror game adaptation series. The sequel is part of Universal Pictures' upcoming theatrical slate and brings back key cast members alongside new animatronic threats. While plot specifics remain under wraps, the film promises higher stakes and a deeper dive into the haunted legacy of Freddy's. Blumhouse and Universal Pictures unveiled the first poster for Five Nights at Freddy's 2 during the CCXP event in Mexico on June 1, 2025. The sequel will be released exclusively in theaters on December 5, 2025, as confirmed by Blumhouse's official post on X (formerly Twitter): 'Please copy. #FNAF2Movie only in theaters December 5.' The event marked Blumhouse's 15th anniversary and included multiple announcements, including a new trailer for The Black Phone sequel and footage from M3GAN 2.0. Emma Tammi returns to direct Five Nights at Freddy's 2, based on Scott Cawthon's video game franchise. Jason Blum and Cawthon also return as producers. The first film, released in 2023, grossed around $292 million worldwide. It set streaming records on Peacock despite receiving generally negative reviews. The film became the highest-grossing title in Blumhouse history. Josh Hutcherson, Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio, and Matthew Lillard reprise their roles from the previous movie. Filmmakers shot the sequel in New Orleans during the 2024–2025 New Year period and expanded the stakes by introducing new characters, including Toy Freddy and Balloon Boy. They have not yet disclosed specific plot details. The original film followed Mike (Josh Hutcherson) as he took a night security job at the haunted Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria, where the spirits of murdered children possessed the animatronic mascots. The sequel continues to explore the horror-driven narrative surrounding the cursed entertainment venue. Additionally, Blumhouse confirmed that the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise will feature at Universal's Halloween Horror Nights later this year.

"Five Nights at Freddy's 2" Debuts Teaser
Yara Sameh The official teaser for Universal and Blumhouse's 'Five Nights at Freddy's 2," a sequel to the horror video game adaptation that became a box office hit in 2023, was unveiled at CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas on Wednesday. The second installment "begins a blood-chilling new chapter of animatronic terror," according to a logline. Another line adds, "Anyone can survive five nights. This time, there will be no second chances." Directed by Emma Tammi, the first film was about Mike (Josh Hutcherson), who takes a sketchy job as a night security guard at an abandoned theme restaurant called Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria. He hopes the gig will help him keep custody of his younger sister, but, a synopsis teases, the job "instead drags him into the black heart of a supernatural nightmare." The movie based on the hit video game was an anomaly performing equally well in theaters and on Peacock since it was a hot, fan-frenzied franchise. "Five Night's Freddy's" was Peacock's most-watched film or series ever in its first five days, besting previous record-holders "Halloween Ends", "The Super Mario Bros. Movie", "Bel-Air" and "The Best Man: The Final Chapters." Blum also gave props to the pic's screenwriter Scott Cawthon for having the foresight that it would be a hit. The movie won over fans with its faithful-to-the-video-game production design, down to the eyeliner on the stuffed walking animals. Universal's marketing machine harnessed that to sell to the Freddy faithful. Tammi returns to direct Freddy's 2 off a script she co-wrote with Cawthon and Seth Cuddeback. Matthew Lillard, Josh Hutcherson, Piper Rubio, and Elizabeth Lail star.
