Series creator Scott Cawthon penned the script, while Jason Blum returns alongside Cawthon to produce. With director Emma Tammi back behind the camera and genre veterans joining returning stars like Josh Hutcherson and Matthew Lillard, the sequel looks ready to lean even harder into the deeply established lore that has kept the community theorizing for a decade.
