Five Nights at Freddy’s movie in development

April 8, 2015 by Gary Collinson

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Warner Bros. has snapped up the movie rights to the video game franchise Five Nights at Freddy’s, with Roy Lee, Seth Grahame-Smith and David Katzenberg set to produce.

“We’re looking forward to working with Scott to make an insane, terrifying and weirdly adorable movie,” said Grahame-Smith, with creator Scott Cawthon adding that, “The story really lends itself to being a movie and it taps into a largely unexplored niche of horror that a lot of people will be able to relate to.

Five Nights at Freddy’s “takes place in Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, a darker version of Chuck-E-Cheese, where an animatronic animal band performs kiddy songs by day, and goes on murderous rampages by night. The goal of the game is survive a night locked inside, knowing that a furry death machine might jump out of the dark at any moment.”

Released last year, the point-and-click adventure has already spawned two sequels, and is available for PC, Anroid and iOS.
