While Josh leads FNAF 2, he’s accompanied by several talented cast members. Horror icon Matthew Lillard — who is also returning to the Scream franchise for the seventh installment — is reprising his role as William Afton, the first film’s villain.
Piper Rubio is also returning as Mike’s little sister, Abby Schmidt, as is Elizabeth Lail, who plays local police officer Vanessa: the daughter of William. Actress McKenna Grace also joined the cast.

Per Movieweb, Matthew confirmed that he signed a three-picture deal for FNAF. So, if the sequel performs well at the box office, fans can likely expect a third movie to come out.
