Five Nights at Freddy's: The Knight of Springtrap is a 2025 American epic action film written, co-produced, and directed by M. Night Shyamalan. Produced by RatPac-Dune Entertainment and distributed by Paramount Pictures, it is a back-to-back sequel to A Nightmare's Wrath and the third installment in the High Legion film series. Dwayne Johnson, Natalie Portman, Ewan McGregor, Hugh Jackman, Crispin Glover, Jennifer Lawrence, and Laurence Fishburne reprise their roles from the previous films, and they are joined by Morgan Freeman, William Fichtner, and Michael Caine. After killing Nightmare, Golden Freddy (Johnson) disappears to pursue an urgent quest. He arrives at his destination only to find the resurrected Springtrap (Glover), who captures him and brainwashes him into his knight of destruction. Golden Freddy's friends, the Puppet, Freddy, Foxy, and Chica (Portman, Jackman, McGregor, and Lawrence) plan to stop Springtrap from destroying humanity. Following its premiere in San Francisco on March 12th, 2025, The Knight of Springtrap was released 8 days later on HBO Max; like the previous films, it received a positive reception, with praise for its direction, visual effects, action sequences, musical score, performances, screenplay, and emotional depth. The film was also a financial success like its predecessors, grossing $917 million worldwide and became one of the most successful launch items in HBO Max's history. A concluding sequel is in development.
