There hasn’t really been too much that’s been going on right now. Josh is currently filming FNAF and there was one picture that might be him. I’ve been keeping up to date on Twitter. There’s been more of the set. So if you wanna see those you can go there.
Josh has signed on to star in the sci-fi action-thriller The Last Ticket, to be directed by Santiago Manes Moreno from his own script.
In the film eyeing a shoot in Seoul, South Korea, which is casting most other roles locally, Hutcherson is set to play Ronny, whose best friend Mike just got out of prison. The pair subsequently work together to hunt down a mysteriously beautiful woman that betrayed them in the middle of a high-stakes robbery. The female lead will be played by a top Korean actress with an announcement coming soon.
Among Hutcherson’s other upcoming projects is Blumhouse’s take on the hit video game Five Nights at Freddy’s, which has him starring alongside Matthew Lillard, Mary Stuart Masterson and more.
Five Nights at Freddy’s has just released a release date of October 27, 2023. So this fil will come out just before Halloween.

Josh Hutcherson was trying get the hell out of Los Angeles. For the better part of a decade, the “Hunger Games” star and his girlfriend, Spanish actor Claudia Traisac, had split their time between L.A. and Madrid, but the eight-hour time difference between the cities had grown wearying. So Hutcherson leased an apartment in Brooklyn, and in April of this year, the couple flew into New York City from Spain, eager to launch their new East Coast life — until, in the car from JFK, Hutcherson got a call from his agent.
“‘How do you feel about going back to the airport right now?’” Hutcherson recalls his agent asking. “I was like, ‘I don’t fucking feel good about it, not at all! Why?’”
The agent explained that Rachel Sennott, the buzzy star of indie hits “Bottoms” and “Shiva Baby,” was launching her first comedy series with HBO, and she wanted Hutcherson to play her character’s boyfriend. But it was going to start shooting in roughly two weeks, and the show’s eventual title doubled as its location: “I Love L.A.”

While HBO’s I Love LA has been praised for its cocaine-fueled and roofie joke-laced brand of comedic chaos, one of the pilot’s standout quips is also among its most low-key ad libs. Moments after Maia (Rachel Sennott, the show’s creator) begs her boyfriend, Dylan (Josh Hutcherson), not to let an earthquake interrupt their birthday sex — “If we’re gonna die, I just wanna come!” she cries — she starts lamenting how much older she looks now that she’s turned 27. “You’re skinnier now,” Dylan replies dryly. Then, he waits a beat before dropping the punchline Hutcherson improvised mid-take: “Which I know you love!”
The way Hutcherson sees it, it’s this kind of tiny-but-telling aside that reveals who Dylan really is and what his relationship with Maia is actually like: something far more layered than just being the nice, normie Spanish teacher to her high-strung influencer manager. “When I was reading the scripts and talking with Rachel about it, [I said], ‘I don’t know why Dylan is with Maia. We have to figure out what that is [because] there’s a version of Dylan that’s very judgy of her,” the actor tells me over a bacon-heavy breakfast at Nine Orchard, the Lower East Side hotel he’s staying at for the week. The version that interested him most was a Dylan who isn’t totally comfortable complimenting Maia for being thinner, yet will still do it because he knows it’s exactly what she wants to hear. “What I wanted to bring to Dylan is that he finds her existence attractive: her wackiness, her spinning, chaotic mind.”

Josh Hutcherson’s Secret to Being an “Internet Boyfriend”? Stay Offline.

HEN THE FIRST Five Nights at Freddy’s movie was released in 2023, Josh Hutcherson said his character, Mike Schmidt, may be the role he related with more than any other. Not the part where Mike tangles with possessed animatronic pizzeria mascots, but the part where he has a deep connection to his baby brother (Hutcherson’s real little bro, Connor, has also dabbled in acting) and an obsession with the meaning behind dreams (He himself is fascinated by “lucid dreaming and dream incubation).
Hutcherson has been acting since the age of nine, when he picked up a phone book in his family’s Kentucky home and called himself an agent. In the time since, he’s played ordinary guys in varying degrees of extraordinary circumstance more than a few times: a reluctant revolutionary in The Hunger Games (making him a reluctant meme in the process), the adopted child of a loving lesbian couple who still yearns to meet his biological dad in The Kids Are All Right, a listless gamer yanked into real sci-fi shenanigans in the cult comedy series Future Man.
But on the eve of Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 hitting theaters following the original’s blockbuster success, Mike Schmidt may have met his match—when it comes to the claim of Hutcherson’s most relatable role. In Rachel Sennott’s buzzy HBO comedy series I Love LA, Hutcherson plays Dylan, the token even-keeled straight guy in a group of over-the-top girls and gays. It’s a part he proudly plays among the cast off-camera too.
“I realized that I haven’t played a normal guy in a normal, real-life reality since I was 15 in The Kids Are All Right,” Hutcherson says. “It’s been really fun to get back to the basics and just be a dude in the world having fun and fucking shit up.” Viewers are enjoying it too, with Dylan’s normcore charm landing Hutcherson “internet boyfriend” status.

We asked the 33-year-old about his busy weekend, which saw him battle both Chuck E. Cheese-esque animatronics and Rachel Sennott.
ESQUIRE: How did you get involved with I Love LA? It feels like Rachel Sennott wrote the character of Dylan for you.
JOSH HUTCHERSON: That’s Rachel’s secret sauce. She finds a way to cast things perfectly for what she wants and also writes to those voices extremely well. They actually shot the pilot with a different actor playing Dylan a year before. The show went through some changes, and they reached out to me to be the new Dylan. I was over the moon. Rachel’s brilliant. So fucking funny, so smart, such a unique voice. And being on an HBO comedy show, like Girls, Sex and the City, Entourage—it was a dream come true.
