According to Hutcherson, the new movie is set to be “much bigger” and “scarier” than its predecessor, with higher stakes and a bigger cast of animatronics.
Hutcherson hinted at the Freddy universe expanding in a significant way, promising a thrilling and immersive experience for fans. He emphasized the importance of keeping the characters grounded in this fantastical world, a challenge that the team successfully tackled in the first film.
Speaking about his character, Mike, Hutcherson expressed his excitement about the endless possibilities within the Freddy-centric world. Could this mean a potential third movie in the future?
