Actor Elizabeth Lail is the latest to join the growing cast of Blumhouse’s Five Nights at Freddy’s, Deadline reports today.
Production is currently underway in New Orleans, with Emma Tammi (The Wind) at the helm of the video game adaptation.
Lail is no stranger to horror and is best known for her performance as Beck in season one of Netflix’s popular series “You,” as well as lead turns in the 2019 horror film Countdown and horror series “Dead of Summer.” She joins previously announced stars Josh Hutcherson (Tragedy Girls, Detention), Matthew Lillard (Thir13en Ghosts, Scream), Kat Conner Sterling (“The Gifted”), and Mary Stuart Masterson (Skin).
While character details remain under wraps, we can at least celebrate that Jim Henson’s Creature Shop has been hard at work on the monstrous animatronics!
