Blumhouse’s Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 filming start date reportedly revealed

Get ready for more scares as Blumhouse’s live-action “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” gears up for production this summer. Following the success of the first installment, which became a horror hit in 2023, fans eagerly anticipate the sequel based on Scott Cawthon’s classic video game.

Star Josh Hutcherson hinted at the sequel’s development last month, mentioning that the story is being finalized. Now, according to Production List, filming for “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” is set to commence on July 1st, 2024, in New Orleans, LA, United States. This suggests a potential release in 2025.

Blumhouse, known for its swift productions, wrapped up filming for the first movie in time for an October release after starting in February. While the sequel may follow a similar timeline, a trailer could drop before the year’s end, or fans might have to wait until October 2025.

Plot details remain tightly under wraps, typical of the franchise, with only hints and teases leading up to the release. Rumors suggest that Jim Henson Creature Shop, known for the animatronics in the first film, is working on the Toy Animatronics for the sequel. These advanced versions of Freddy Fazbear, Chica, Foxy, and Bonny promise to bring new surprises to both longtime fans and newcomers alike.

Stay tuned for more updates as “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” continues its development journey toward an eagerly anticipated release date.
