A fresh trailer for Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 just dropped, and it finally reveals who Scream alum Skeet Ulrich is playing in the sequel. According to JoBlo’s breakdown, Ulrich portrays Henry Emily, co-founder of Freddy Fazbear’s alongside William Afton (Matthew Lillard)—a lore-heavy character whose tragic backstory ties directly to the Puppet.
Set one year after the first film’s events, the sequel moves the action to the town’s inaugural Fazfest, where Abby (Piper Rubio) slips away to reconnect with her animatronic “friends.” That decision kicks off a chain of scares that digs deeper into Freddy’s origins and “unleashes a long-forgotten horror.” The trailer also offers our best look yet at the Toy variants—Toy Freddy, Toy Bonnie, and Toy Chica—with voice roles that include Megan Fox (Toy Chica), MatPat (Toy Bonnie), and Kellen Goff (Toy Freddy).
Returning faces—and new blood
Back from the 2023 smash are Josh Hutcherson (Mike), Elizabeth Lail (Vanessa), Piper Rubio (Abby), and Matthew Lillard (Afton). New additions include Mckenna Grace, Teo Briones, Freddy Carter, Wayne Knight, and now Skeet Ulrich as Henry. Director Emma Tammi returns, with Jim Henson’s Creature Shop again bringing the animatronics to unsettling life—something Tammi and the team have hinted is even more ambitious this time around.
Release date and where to watch the trailer
Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is set to hit theaters December 5, 2025. You can watch the latest trailer via the film’s official site (which also confirms the date).
