The photon blockade induced by optical nonlinearity has been widely used to generate single-photon emission under optical driving in quantum optics. However, the same approach is difficult to achieve in electrically driven molecular junctions. Here we propose a scheme for tuning photon statistics via Fano-like interference effect in a system consisting of two molecules within one optical cavity. Under electrical pumping, a transition from photon bunching to antibunching takes place as a manifestation of the Fano-like interference. This effect persists even in the presence of the dipole-dipole interaction between molecules based on the parameters extracted from the experiments. Our proposal can be realized in current-carrying scanning tunneling microscope junctions.
