Five Nights at Freddy's: A Hero's Awakening is a 2022 American epic action film written, co-produced and directed by M. Night Shyamalan. It is the first installment in the High Legion film series and a spin-off to the Five Nights At Freddy's game franchise. The film stars Dwayne Johnson as Golden Freddy, an animatronic with human feelings who has been trapped inside of the Nightmare World. He eventually escapes as a force of good and protecting humanity and other animatronics from a terrible, prophesied mass murderer. The supporting cast includes Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor, Hugh Jackman, Crispin Glover, Boyd Holdbrook, Heather Masters, Anya Taylor-Joy, Keanu Reeves, Andy Serkis, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Laurence Fishburne. A Hero's Awakening was released on August 11th, 2022; it was a box-office success, grossing over $561 million, and received generally positive reviews, citing its performances, story, action sequences, Shyamalan's direction, visual effects, Hans Zimmer's score, and emotional depth. However, several of the crew who made the games panned the film for its character development, with many of them feeling that the story has no faith despite Shyamalan making a clear statement that it takes place after the events of the games. Its success prompted Shyamalan to develop multiple sequels, beginning with the 2024 film A Nightmare's Wrath.
