The Five Nights at Freddy’s movie featured a handful of familiar YouTuber stars. Here’s a full list of the lucky creators who got a small part in the horror movie.

The Five Nights at Freddy’s series has cemented itself in video game history thanks to its unique gameplay, original storyline, and cast of terrifying animatronic characters (who kicked off the ongoing trend of mascot horror games, for better or worse).

The franchise became so big that it even scored its very own Hollywood horror film, which was released in theaters on October 27, 2023, courtesy of Blumhouse Productions.

Although rumors abounded about a certain YouTuber having a potential cameo in the film thanks to a leaked trailer back in May, this cameo was confirmed just a month later. However, since the movie was released, fans spotted a slew of other influencer appearances.

Before the FNAF movie was released, fans anticipated seeing several YouTubers and influencers, most of whom were first spotted in the movie’s trailer.

The full list of YouTubers who’ve made an appearance in the FNAF movie are as follows:

Perhaps the most notable cameo out of the bunch comes from YouTube star CoryxKenshin, who plays a taxi driver who unknowingly transports Josh Hutcherson’s little sister and a busted-up Freddy animatronic in the back of his car.

This cameo was known among fans for some time after a trailer for the FNAF movie leaked back in May. However, those who didn’t get to see the advertisement at first were delighted to see the Samurai himself showing off his acting chops.

The other YouTubers listed above also make an appearance in the movie, albeit in a comparatively smaller role. In the background of one of the trailer’s shots, fans can spot a display case showing off ‘Employees of the Month,’ where 8-Bit Ryan, Baz, Razzbowski, FusionZGamer, and Dawko all pose wearing uniforms for Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria.

YouTuber MatPat was also featured in the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie, playing a waiter in Sparky’s Diner.

It’s an adorable nod to some of the creators who have made content for the series throughout the years… although it looks like they all, unfortunately, fell prey to the animatronics roaming the pizzeria’s halls at night.

Is Markiplier in the FNAF movie?

However, there’s one major YouTuber who’s missing: Markiplier. Although speculation was high that he’d make an appearance in the film, the creator confirmed in an October 16 livestream that he would not be getting a cameo in the movie.

Mark claimed that scheduling conflicts with his own movie, Iron Lung, were to blame for this issue. “Let’s get this straight, it was supposed to happen,” he said. “Unfortunately, the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie and my movie, Iron Lung, were being filmed at the exact same time.”

Markiplier says the amount of money he makes is unfair
Markiplier is a well-known YouTuber who exploded in popularity after playing the Five Nights at Freddy’s games back in the late 2010s.

Prior to this livestream, Mark was quite cagey about the whole thing. He made a comment about the situation in an interview back in March, claiming he “couldn’t say anything” about a possible cameo in the film. He also alluded to possible scheduling conflicts, which fans theorized could have been due to him filming Iron Lung – and it looks like they weren’t far off base.
