After just over two months of shooting, filming has officially wrapped on “A Quiet Place: Day One” – the upcoming spin-off of John Krasinski’s hit horror franchise at Paramount Pictures.
Based on an original idea by John Krasinski, and written by Michael Sarnoski and Jeff Nichols, the film will not deal with the Abbott family storyline and instead unfold against the larger backdrop of the universe of the two prior films.
It’s expected to likely deal with the first day in the wake of the sonic-targeting beasties arriving on Earth, much like the opening segment of “A Quiet Place Part II”.
Lupita Nyong’o (“Us”), Joseph Quinn (“Stranger Things”) and Alex Wolff (“Hereditary”) star in the project, which hails from “Pig” director Michael Sarnoski. Djimon Hounsou, who had a role in the second main film, is reprising that part here.
The film is slated to arrive in cinemas on March 8th 2024. John Krasinski, Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller will produce. The Abbott family storyline is expected to continue with a third film in the main series sometime in 2025.
The first film scored $341 million off a $17 million budget, whilst the second snagged $297 million from a $55-60 million budget.
