The complete trailer for Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 has been released, igniting excitement as it showcases a range of new characters and more animatronics than the previous film. The trailer presents the original location of Freddy’s where four new characters embark on a journey that soon takes a terrifying turn. Meanwhile, familiar characters Mike and Vanessa strive to return to normalcy following the events of the first movie, while young Abby is still drawn to her animatronic companions who implore her to aid in their escape.

In addition to the trailer, Emma Tammi, the director, noted during the Comic-Con panel that the sequel features “three times as many animatronics” compared to its predecessor. Notable cast returning includes Josh Hutcherson reprising his role as Mike Schmidt alongside Piper Rubio, Elizabeth Lail, and Matthew Lillard. New faces like McKenna Grace, Teo Briones, Freddy Carter, Wayne Knight, Theodus Crane, and Skeet Ulrich will also join the ensemble.

Fans eager for the movie’s release can mark their calendars for December 5. Although the films are based on the games, they feature differences in plot while maintaining core characters. The first film had mixed reviews but was a box office success, becoming Blumhouse’s top-grossing film upon its release in 2023.
