Five Nights at Freddy's is one of the most popular horror games ever made. The game has been around for years and has spawned multiple sequels and spin-offs. The game is set in a Freddy Fazbear's Pizza and the player is tasked with protecting the restaurant from animatronic animals that are set to kill children.
The game has recently been updated and changes a lot of things. The biggest change is that the animatronics are now much more aggressive and dangerous. The player now has to use their wits and skills to survive the night.

the FNAF movie just got an update that
basically changes everything we thought
about the movie and today I wanted to
theorize what the film is going to be
about which games that's going to cover
and what the story of the movie is going
to be because trust me it's extremely
confusing like the video if you're
excited and as a reward here is a
picture of a draft so the FNAF movie is
the long-awaited film finally releasing
this October onto movie theaters and
even streaming services descriptions
basically describing the film as an
adventure of the movie's main character
Mike Schmidt who works a dead end and
eventually deadly job at Freddy
Fazbear's Pizza having to simply survive
the night there hence the name Five
Nights at Freddy's however the first
question I had about this movie's plot
after reading it was which games in the
finale franchise will this cover and how
accurate to the games will it be and
while what I found is rather interesting
as while we won't hear too much about
the movie and it's plot until it of
course releases we can learn a ton about
the movie on the IMDb movie page which
is a site I talk about all the time that
updates Real Time with brand new
castings and character callings for the
movie so some of which are expected and
extremely hyped like Mike Schmidt the
main security guard in leaf enough games
being played by Josh Hutcherson however
then there's characters like Vanessa
from security breach being played by
Elizabeth lale so now the movie is going
to be about FNAF 1 and FNAF security
breach which is interesting however as
the website updates the movie plot just
seems to get weirder and weirder as in
the past month we've gotten even more
plot leaks revealing characters like the
puppet and balloon boy were also cast
for the film confirming FNAF 2 is going
to be in the movie recently there was a
literal leak showing us a springtrap
animatronic model confirming FNAF 3 as
well and while it's not confirmed some
leaks also show sets of Home windows and
exteriors leading to some theorizing
it's also going to be about FNAF 4 which
means the movie is going to be about
five different movies not even including
other Easter eggs from other games found
in the film as well so already the movie
seems like it's going to be a big lore
Mass but trust me the characters
themselves get a lot weirder for example
as we know in the basic mouth War Mike
Schmidt is basically confirmed to have
been the son of William Afton and is
sometimes also referred to as Michael
Afton with a little sister showing up
throughout the franchise named Elizabeth
Afton however the movie completely
contradicts this as Mike Schmidt has a
sister in the film however she goes by
the name of Abby and is played by Piper
Rubio now when this casting call first
came out most people assumed Abby was
just a different name for Elizabeth
Afton or something like that for secrecy
however I actually think that Abby is a
completely separate character reason
being one of Elizabeth's most distinct
and noticeable details in her character
is her big bright blonde hair that
sticks out like a sore thumb and as for
this Abby character well in the official
poster for the movie she still had brown
hair and she even as they photo double
that has the same brown hair and
hairstyle doubling down on this even
further so to me this essentially proves
to us that Abby and Elizabeth are not
the same character at least the most
likely which is maybe a bit
disappointing but overall not a big deal
the story will probably still work the
same however this lore issue starts to
go a lot deeper as the main antagonist
for the film as you would obviously
expect is going to be none other than
William Afton or purple guy or
springtrap who is being played by
Matthew Willard simply enough and should
be the father of course of Michael Afton
or Mike Schmidt himself however in this
movie he isn't his father as we just got
news yesterday that the actor Garrett
Hines was cast as Mike's dad in the
movie so now William Afton and Michael
Afton aren't related Elizabeth Afton no
longer exists Vanessa and Mike Schmidt
are in the same exact timeline what is
going on here well to put it simply the
FNAF movie is most likely not canon to
the story and in fact it seems to
stretch and pull on the story of the
games quite a bit in order to tell the
best story for the movie which I guess
makes sense since they want to talk
about as many games and stories as
possible since there's like a dozen of
them now that they want to cover but
this then brings up a massive question
what in the world is the movie going to
be about well now that we could throw
the Canon lore out of the window for a
change we can actually make some pretty
good guesses see for locations there
seems to be quite a few different and
diver spots for the movie as we
mentioned for example of course we have
the pizzeria but we also have a leaked
mall location where we can actually see
Mike literally fighting somebody outside
of another new location being the ice
cream shop designed specifically for the
movie plus there's other unnamed
locations like this one here that was
from the first shot of the movie among
many others however while those are cool
they're most likely just for side pots
of some sort and what's really the most
important is that if we look at the FNAF
movie location as I mentioned before
during filming the location would often
go back and forth from just the regular
Pizzeria of course to sometimes an
abandoned broken down version with moss
and aging all over it which is extremely
interesting since a few of the main
characters in the film specifically Mike
Schmidt himself and Vanessa actually
have people cast for their younger
versions in the film and also Mike has a
mother and father cast for the film who
also appeared to be around Mike's
actor's age which would obviously be
really weird normally however this all
seems to be pointing to the idea that a
major portion of the movie is going to
take place in some sort of flashback
containing the main characters as their
younger selves this whole flashback
theory that I brought up for a while now
would also explain a major league that
people have been questioning on for a
while as recently a new image leaked
around the internet showing some sort of
restaurant area interior that's going to
be used for the movie and while this
could be a leak of the pizzerias
interior people noticed that it had a
lot of similarities to older FNAF
locations in the actual game
specifically like fredbear's Family
Diner based on its purple aesthetic in
the posters that look extremely similar
to fredbear's posters not to mention the
incredibly specific corporate designs we
see in the restaurant that also show up
in the league plus if we look at the
location it doesn't look like the FNAF 1
location at all which is where the movie
is supposed to take place then so this
seems like somewhere new how however we
could basically confirm that this is in
fact the interior of the FNAF restaurant
itself because as I've covered before
there's a big arc on the exit door here
which we can see a one for one in the
poster for the actual movie so these two
are objectively the same exact location
but why does the movie Set look so dated
and inaccurate well it could just be
that they're trying something completely
new for the movie which I guess is
possible however I wonder if maybe this
could be what the restaurant looks like
in the flashback with Mike and Vanessa
and they go and visit the location
decades before it became the Freddy
fazbears we know today and it looked
like this it would make sense at least
visually because this location looks
nothing like the original Freddy
Fazbear's location however it's mostly
just a gas and a theory so I wouldn't
take it as fast but in terms of the
overarching plot my general theory is
that the movie like I just mentioned
seems like it's going to start in some
sort of flashback perhaps as somebody's
home the pizzeria or something else in
the past to build some sort of basis and
foreshadowing in the future perhaps
maybe Mike will see something scary or
think of something when he's younger
that will help him when he's forced to
work there to build some sort of
connection with him in the pizzeria
however when Mike ends up going to the
restaurant once again he meets up with
Vanessa in her adult form who according
to a movie synopsis reveals that William
Afton is a child murderer haunting these
animatronics while Mike himself tries to
survive the night but while this is all
extremely interesting and it sounds
incredibly scary the real haunt of this
movie actually seems like it's going to
be Abby Mike's mysterious sister who in
her one visual appearance thus far is
literally seen hanging out with one of
the animatronics doing the exact
opposite of what Vanessa and Mike would
want her to do so while it's basically
all up to assumptions on what this could
mean this scene here seems to be
extremely important in the movie and For
Better or For Worse Abby seems to be
able to communicate and possibly even
empathize with these animatronics and
maybe even has a full-blown speaking
relationship with them a sharp Twist
from what we hear from Mike's
perspective where the animatronics are
seen as horrifically evil which would be
an interesting shift in perspective
since most of FNAF in general is played
where you are the prey to the
animatronics rather than potentially
being a friend to them like what we see
with Abby but Abby's character also
starts to bring up a lot of different
questions like what happened to her
parents who should be taking care of her
instead of Mike who brings her to the
restaurant did they die or something and
if so they couldn't have died from old
age otherwise how could they have a 10
year old child clearly something
happened with Mike and Abby's parents
giving him some sort of responsibility
over Abby and we've even seen on the
IMDb page that there is a social worker
cast for the film suggesting along with
the movie conflict there may actually be
some sort of family relationship
conflict as well whether that be between
Mike's younger self and his parents or
maybe even a modern version of himself
who takes care of his sister after
something that's never explained
happened to his parents that seems like
it's going to be extremely important and
it could be the real plot of the movie
outside of course surviving from it's an
interesting detail that I don't see
anybody ever talking about it feels like
it would be a massive part of the movie
that just sort of gets swept under the
rug plus there's other seemingly
important characters cast for the movie
as well such as Mary Stewart Masterson
who was literally just labeled as an
unnamed female villain what in the world
is she for is she often's real wife or
maybe an accomplice of some of sorts
that's going to be original to the story
I'm not exactly sure but if they are
hiding her name it probably means that
revealing it would spoil something about
the movie and they are simply trying to
save it for a surprise so I would
definitely keep an eye on her and make
sure to keep an eye on this channel with
a sub to stay up to date on any plot
