Hutcherson, who is on the press circuit at the moment for his action film The Beekeeper, released an update that Five Nights at Freddy’s sequel is looking good.

“I know they’re in the process right now of nailing down the story, and they want to get going as soon as possible,” Hutcherson stated. “Obviously, the fans are amazing and die hard. For me to be a part of it was so cool and phenomenal.

“We hoped it would connect with audiences,” he added. “But I don’t think that anybody, even on our side of things, expected it to really connect the way that it did. I’m dying to get back on set. Emma Tammi, our director, was fantastic, and it was such a fun world to play in. I’m excited to see what they are doing next.”

Hutcherson also shared that his Hunger Games co-star and actress Jennifer Lawrence dropped him a message to celebrate his box office success for Five Nights at Freddy’s, which happened on the same weekend that her film No Hard Feelings also led the Netflix charts.

“Jen texted me when “Freddy’s’ came out,” Hutcherson mentioned. “She was like, ‘My movie’s #1 on Netflix, and yours’s is #1 at the box office! Let’s go!’ I was like, ‘I love you!'”
