Bendy creator TheMeatly said that some "HUGE exciting things are happening with Bendy behind the scenes," on X/Twitter adding the "#BendyMovie" hashtag at the end. This seems to suggest that the Bendy and the Ink Machine Movie might be a little closer to reaching theaters or streaming services, which is exciting news for many fans who have been awaiting its release since its announcement.
However, the post didn't share any specifics, with the developer noting that he hopes to share more information with fans "sometime soon if they continue to work out." Some fans speculated that the news could be a cast reveal, or the finalization of the script.
The Bendy and the Ink Machine Movie was first announced last December with a simple post on TheMeatly's X/Twitter acount. Since then, TheMeatly has made several announcements about other projects, and has hinted multiple times before on social media that there's a lot in store for the Bendy franchise's future.
However, there's been minimal news about the movie itself, leaving many fans eager to learn more. It seems that some related announcements could be coming soon, given that everything works out behind the scenes.
While the announcement of the Bendy and the Ink Machine Movie last year came as a happy surprise to many long-time players and fans of the game, it wouldn't be the first mascot horror title to make it to the big screen. Five Nights at Freddy's broke box office records after its release last year, and a second film is already in production.
