The popular horror game series Five Nights at Freddy’s is getting turned into a movie this year. Now the first teaser trailer and some character posters have also been released.
Like the original video game, the film follows a night watchman who arrives to work at a restaurant, who soon discovers that there are dangerous figures moving among the dark. Josh Hutcherson, best known from the Hunger Games movies, plays the security guard.
The poster depicts puppet characters terrorizing the restaurant. On the other hand, the trailer invites the viewers to enjoy Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza restaurant through a retro style advertisement.
The film was directed by Emma Tammy, who has Finnish roots. He also co-wrote the story with Seth Cudback and Scott Cawthon, the creators of the original games. The film is produced by Jason Blum, who specializes in the horror genre through his Blumhouse company.
The first Five Nights at Freddy’s game was released in 2014 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch consoles, PC and mobile platforms. The newest addition to the series, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach, was released in late 2021.
The film Five Nights at Freddy’s will premiere on October 27.
