Is Five Nights At Freddy’s movie trailer leak still online?
The Five Nights At Freddy’s movie trailer was leaked online during the weekend of Friday, Saturday 5th 2023, and was shared on social media. However, the trailers have been taken down with a ‘This media has been disabled in response to a report by the copyright owner’ disclaimer in their place. Copyright owners have knuckled under to eliminate all leaks.
It’s worth noting that the footage that was leaked was the rough-cut trailer and wasn’t fully completed. Scott Cawthon is the co-producer, and also co-writer. He recently released a press release on subreddit about the leak.
“I know that Blumhouse and Universal (and me too) have all worked very hard to make something really exciting to share. So the thought of a first look being spoiled was frustrating, and I was really dreading coming home to see what all had happened while I was away.”
He continued: “To my surprise though, I got home and found a lot of YouTube channels refusing to do videos on it, Twitter channels refusing to repost it, countless members refusing to watch it, and moderators taking a stand against allowing discussion on it.”
Scott explained that this reaction and resistance to the leak was “really encouraging to see,” and argues that those who waited will be “much happier” when they finally see the fully completed trailer “with VFX and proper sounds.”
‘It’s going to be great’
Although many missed out, others didn’t and have shared their reaction to the Five Nights aT Freddy’s movie trailer leak.
