FNAF creator Scott Cawthon will be contributing to a behind-the-scenes book about the making of the Blumhouse Five Nights at Freddy’s movies
If one thing is true of Five Nights at Freddy’s fandom, it’s that the presence of creator Scott Cawthon means a lot. Just look at the success of Blumhouse’s two FNAF movies, which were created in collaboration with Cawthon, for example. (In fact, he wrote the screenplay to the second movie entirely solo, after co-writing the first.) It only makes sense, then that a book about the Five Nights at Freddy’s movies would be more successful with Cawthon attached in some way… like, you know, if he was co-writing the book. Scholastic has some very good news for fans, in that case.
Cawthon is one of two writers behind Five Nights at Freddy’s: The Art and Making of the Movies, a 176-page hardcover coffee table book coming this November that looks at the art and artistry involved in bringing the video game phenomenon to the big screen. He’ll be joined by Cala Spinner, who’s previously written books across all manner of franchises and pop culture icons, from Peppa Pig and Harry Potter to Batman and The Little Engine That Could. Here’s what the cover of the book will look like:
According to the publisher, the book will feature “an inside look at the filmmaking process for both films through animatronic designs and prototypes, behind-the-scenes photographs, and interviews with Production Designer Marc Fisichella and Freddy Fazbear stunt performer Kevin Foster.” Also included will be “close looks at designs for costumes, rides, Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria, and more,” ensuring that the hardcover will make the ideal book for any FNAF fan – and a welcome addition to many holiday gift lists, considering that November release date.
Retailing for $39.99 US, Five Nights at Freddy’s: The Art and Making of the Movies will be released November 3.
