When Universal and Blumhouse announced that Matthew Lillard had joined the cast of "Five Nights at Freddy's" as a "human antagonist," it was assumed that he was playing the twisted franchise villain, William Afton. However, the trailers and official press releases all list him as "Steve Raglan" a career counselor who helps Mike Schmidt (Josh Hutcherson) find his job as a security guard at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. But "FNaF" fans aren't stupid, and the fandom is one of the most dedicated out there. You can't fool us, we know that man is William Afton.
It's assumed that "Steve Raglan" is just another pseudonym for Afton, and director Emma Tammi all but confirmed it as much to be true in the latest issue of Empire Magazine. "The human antagonist was the number one role that we really had the fan base in mind for," Tammi said. "What Matthew brings to all...

Samuel L. Jackson was hitting headlines after attending the 2023 Tony Awards on Sunday.
The actor was nominated for Best Performance by a Featured Actor in a Play for his role in August Wilson’s The Piano Lesson. However, he lost out to Leopoldstadt star Brandon Uranowitz.
The Piano Lesson was Jackson’s wife Latanya Richardson’s Broadway directorial debut.

Josh Hutcherson is in over his head in the first teaser for Blumhouse’s movie adaptation of horror video game Five Nights at Freddy’s.
The film follows the same storyline as the game, originally created Scott Cawthon, which sees a troubled security guard (Hutcherson) begin working at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, a dark take on Chuck-e-Cheese. “While spending his first night on the job, he realizes the night shift at Freddy’s won’t be so easy to make it through,” the description reads.
The brief teaser for the adaptation begins by welcoming the new security guard to the family entertainment center “where fantasy and fun come to life,” before cutting to an ominous scene outside of the abandoned building.
“We’re going to have so much fun together,” the host says, as a scene of Hutcherson’s Mike getting strapped into an electric chair plays.
