Markiplier Addresses Whether He'll Appear in Five Nights at Freddy's 2

Key Takeaways

  • Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is in production raising questions of potential influencer cameos.
  • YouTuber Markiplier could not appear in the first FNAF movie due to scheduling conflicts.
  • Markiplier has cast doubt on whether he might cameo in Five Nights at Freddy’s 2.

As a dedicated fan who has followed Markiplier’s journey since his early days of gaming videos, I can’t help but feel a twinge of disappointment at the prospect of him not appearing in Five Nights at Freddy’s 2. His charismatic performance in the game’s lore and his undeniable passion for the series make him the perfect fit for any cameo role.

The filming of Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 has already started, and with some well-known YouTubers making an appearance in the first movie, there’s speculation about whether the franchise’s most ardent fan might make a cameo in the sequel.

Blumhouse Productions is the film studio that brought the screen versions of “Five Nights at Freddy’s” and its sequel to life. The making of these films based on Scott Cawthon’s popular children’s horror games took nearly a decade, but the wait was worth it as the FNAF movie became a box office sensation. Although the game’s story in “Five Nights at Freddy’s” is relatively simple, over time, fans have created extensive lore and intriguing theories around it. YouTube personalities and streamers play a significant role in the FNAF community, and the movie team honored this by featuring cameos from notable figures like MatPat and CoryxKenshin in the film adaptation.

As a devoted fan, I’ve always looked forward to seeing Markiplier (a.k.a Mark Fischbach) in the world of Five Nights at Freddy’s. His channel is famous for his thrilling playthrough videos of this very game. Initially, it was planned that he would make an appearance in the movie, portraying another security guard at Freddy Fazbear’s pizzeria. However, due to his obligations towards other projects, Markiplier unfortunately had to step away from that role. With Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 gaining momentum, fans like myself are eagerly hoping for a second opportunity for Markiplier to realize his long-awaited cameo.

In a recent episode of the PowerWash Pals Podcast, posted on November 26, Markiplier shared his thoughts about a potential appearance in Five Nights at Freddy’s 2. Unfortunately, he mentioned that no one has contacted him regarding this opportunity, suggesting that it might not be happening since filming may have already started. If he were approached, Markiplier expressed his preference for a more substantial role rather than just a brief cameo. There are some skeptics who question whether Markiplier is telling the truth about being in FNAF 2, as fellow YouTuber MatPat did something similar before appearing in the original game. However, at this point, it seems that an appearance in FNAF 2 may not be on the cards.

I think they started filming it already so at this point I don’t think it’s going to happen.

Why Markiplier Was Cut From the First Five Nights at Freddy’s Movie

Markiplier shared the story of how he landed his role in the first FNAF movie, disclosing that his initial part was intended to be the cab driver (which eventually went to CoryxKenshin), but he requested a more significant role where he could utilize his acting skills from Scott Cawthon, the game’s creator. This led to him being cast as the security guard who meets an untimely end at the start of the film, however, scheduling issues with Iron Lung forced him to withdraw from the project. As he put it, “I was eager and prepared for it, but unfortunately, my schedule clashed with Iron Lung and filming.

Markiplier continues to keep a packed calendar, as the actor is currently starring in “The Edge of Sleep” on Prime Video and is diligently working towards the release of his directorial project, “Iron Lung.” With these commitments ongoing, it remains uncertain if he would be able to fit in a role for “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2,” should such an opportunity arise.

Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is scheduled for release in December 2025.
