In the closing moments of the trailer, Cory is revealed in the movie as a taxi driver who picks up occupants outside of the cursed pizzeria. Unbeknownst to Cory at first, the occupants in the back seat that he picked up are Abby Schmidt (Piper Rubio) and a disembodied animatronic head. After checking his rearview mirror and spotting the striking head, Cory whines about how he always picks up the “weirdos” as a cab driver.

The special cameo makes perfect sense, of course, seeing as the FNAF game series has been one of the most popular that Cory has played over on his official YouTube channel. Not only that, but acclaimed YouTuber Markiplier has also been rumored to make an appearance in the movie — though he later took to a live-stream to debunk those rumors.

Which leaves just CoryxKenshin with a cameo. Following the arrival of early trailers for FNAF, the popular YouTuber kept to his brand and ed a reaction video. In the video, he notes that the Five Nights at Freddy’s movie officially marks the beginning of his “acting era,” and jokes about branching off into bigger projects.

Jokes aside, CoryxKenshin credits the game with changing the trajectory of his life, and calls his involvement in its film adaptation a “once in a lifetime” opportunity. His fans certainly seem to agree, based on their enthusiastic responses to the trailer. They’ll be heading to theaters for the film’s Oct. 27 release in droves, celebrating an internet legend and his move to the big screen.
