Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 has an official theatrical release date. The original 2023 movie, which followed Mike (Josh Hutcherson) getting a job as a security guard at a closed-down family restaurant filled with haunted animatronics, was based on the video game series of the same name created by Scott Cawthon. The movie was a smash hit, grossing $297.2 million against a $20 million budget despite a day-and-date Peacock release and a steep 76.2% drop in its second weekend. In the wake of this success, the sequel Five Nights at Freddys 2 was confirmed to be greenlit in early 2024.
