Five Nights at Freddy's, the Halloween horror sensation that recently took the box office by storm, has left its critics and fans alike eager to find out what's next.
Directed by the talented Emma Tammi, the live-action film adaptation of Scott Cawthon's iconic video game series has not only garnered a massive following but also raked in an impressive $130 million globally on its opening weekend. To put that in perspective, that's a six-fold return on its modest $20 million production budget.
Now, with such a roaring success, the question on everyone's mind is: Will there be a sequel? If so, what can we expect? It's no secret that when horror films hit the jackpot, sequels are almost always in the pipeline, and with Five Nights at Freddy's, it's no different.
Given the franchise's extensive lore, spanning 13 video games and multiple books, there's no shortage of material for it to draw from. Universal would be missing a trick if it didn't capitalize on this potential goldmine.
While there's no official confirmation yet, the signs are definitely promising. In a recent interview with Variety, Tammi (who apparently didn't know anything about the franchise before she came aboard) hinted at the possibility of a sequel aligning with the second game in the series.
