Even if this sequel remains firmly in the shadows of the original, I wanted part three as soon as it was over. In its best moments, “A Quiet Place Part II” reminded me of Steven Spielberg cutting loose with “ The Lost World: Jurassic Park,” letting his beasts rampage through a new environment in a staggering way. He also asserts his talent at orchestrating tense life-or-death scenes with an exciting sense of when to go slow and when to floor it. Michael Bay, Andrew Form, Brad Fuller and Krasinski are producing the feature.In writing and directing this sequel, Krasinski proves his intelligence and his non-subversive priorities when it comes to being a genre director. Krasinski is also developing A Quiet Place: Part III.Ī Quiet Place: Day One is due out in theaters on March 8, 2024. He performed his own work on the script after boarding as director. The Quiet Place franchise was born from an original spec script by Bryan Woods and Scott Beck, who shared screenplay credit with Krasisnki. Krasinski spoke about traveling the country to screenings of Part II as people started returning to theaters, calling it a great honor of his career. It earned $340.9 million globally, with the sequel, A Quiet Place Part II, grossing $297.3 million globally in 2021, a strong showing as the theatrical business was coming out of the pandemic. The Quiet Place series takes place in a world in which blind, monster-like aliens hunt down anything that makes a sound, ravaging the Earth.Ī Quiet Place became a surprise smash in 2018, turning Krasinski into an A-list director. Along with Nyong’o, Joseph Quinn, Alex Wolff, Djimon Hounsou and Denis O’Hare also star.

The Paramount film, which wrapped just a few weeks ago, is based on an original idea from A Quiet Place filmmaker Krasinski, and is directed by Pig’s Michael Sarnoski, who also wrote the script.

Moments later, we see Nyong’o’s character, covered in dust, waking up and wandering around the city as people run in chaos. “Experience the day our world went quiet,” reads the tagline as the camera pans up to show dozens of asteroids falling to Earth.
