Last week it was revealed that Matthew Lillard and Josh Hutcherson will appear in the Five Nights at Freddy's live-action film. At the time, it was unclear who the two would be playing, but both actor's roles were recently revealed by streamer Dawko. Dawko held a charity stream for St. Jude, where he revealed that Hutcherson will be playing protagonist Mike Schmidt, while Lillard will take on the role of William Afton.
As most fans of Five Nights at Freddy's already know, William is the central antagonist of the series, as well as Mike's father. Lillard has a history of playing memorable villains, as he portrayed Stu Macher in the original Scream.
Five Nights at Freddy's is one of several video game movies currently in development. While films based on games have a bad history, there are a lot of signs that things are changing in Hollywood. There has been a greater push to involve developers and creators in these types of adaptations, as well as a heavier focus on faithfulness to the source material.
Now that the leads are cast, it certainly seems like production on Blumhouse Productions' Five Nights at Freddy's is starting to progress nicely! Hopefully fans will get a lot more information about the movie in 2023. 0commentsAre you looking forward to the FNAF movie? What do you think of these announcements?
