The Bendy Movie Shouldn't Be "Trendy," TheMeatly Says

As a die-hard fan who’s been following TheMeatly’s Bendy saga since its humble beginnings, I can’t help but feel a mix of excitement and anticipation for the upcoming Bendy movie. The creator’s commitment to making a timeless horror film that stands on its own is music to my ears. It’s reminiscent of how Five Nights at Freddy’s managed to captivate audiences without needing prior knowledge of the games, which bodes well for the Bendy movie’s potential success.


According to the series creator, TheMeatly, on his official Twitter account, the forthcoming Bendy movie will not lean towards being fashionable or overly extravagant. Instead, he aspires to create a timeless horror film that can be appreciated for many years and possess its own merit.

The filmmaker expresses that he intends for the Bendy movie to be self-explanatory, implying it can be appreciated without extensive knowledge of the games. In essence, this is akin to blockbusters like Five Nights at Freddy’s which captivate audiences regardless of their familiarity with the source material. “I truly desire the Bendy film to excel,” he penned. “It should offer chills, substance, and be treated with gravity, but not overly so.”

I’m eager for #BENDYMOVIE to turn out fantastic. My hope is that it becomes a classic horror film, capable of being enjoyed for decades and standing independently. It should deliver chills, possess substance, yet not lose touch with its essence. We aim for it to be taken seriously, but without becoming too heavy-handed or overly fashionable. In other words, we don’t want it to be just another trend or flash in the pan. πŸ‘

Some people speculate that the recent post could be a subtle critique of the upcoming Minecraft movie featuring Jack Black. Yesterday saw the release of its trailer, and a common complaint among fans is that it appears overly trendy and flashy, with numerous references to the source material but failing to genuinely pay homage to it.

Shortly after TheMeatly hinted at discussions with a well-known figure who appears to understand Bendy, he confirmed that progress is indeed being made with them on the film project. At this point, specifics about their arrangement remain scarce, but curious fans have begun guessing the identity of the celebrity involved.

Currently, there’s no set date for the release of Bendy Movie, indicating it’s probably still undergoing early development stages. TheMeatly announced its upcoming launch last year in December and has occasionally provided updates about the film on his Twitter/X account; however, more specific details are yet to be revealed.

Despite limited media coverage, TheMeatly has dropped numerous hints about upcoming Bendy games and shared sneak peeks of others. Lately, TheMeatly posed a question to players asking if they’d prefer games based on cartoon versions of Bendy, Alice Angel, and Boris, and also confirmed that the third mainline Bendy game – Bendy 3 – is under development. As we learn more about the Bendy movie and the upcoming Bendy games, we will keep you informed.
