I’m really excited about this new project because it brings Josh Duhamel and Eytan Ungar back together! They worked brilliantly on Bandit – you might remember that one, it’s a true story with Mel Gibson and Elisha Cuthbert about a Canadian robber who kept breaking records.

What’s really cool is that a voiceover during the credits of the new movie revealed Henry wasn’t just a grieving father; he actually helped create Freddy Fazbear’s animatronics! He even left a warning for Josh Hutcherson’s character, Mike, about just how dangerous the Marionette is.

The show’s performance is particularly noteworthy considering Amazon’s high hopes for it. The Wheel of Time was intended to be a major fantasy series, but problems with its speed, changing moods, and controversial choices held it back. Even when the show was at its best, it constantly faced comparisons to the source material and the expectations that came with adapting a beloved book series.
