Filming is officially underway 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.
By the title, 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”. However actual plot specifics are under wraps.
Lupita Nyong’o (“Us”), Joseph Quinn (“Stranger Things”), and Alex Wolff (“Hereditary”) star in the project which hails from “Pig” director Michael Sarnoski.
Krasinski took to Twitter today to share behind the scenes shots from the set of the project which is slated to arrive in cinemas on March 8th 2024. Krasinski, Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller will produce.
The Abbott family storyline meanwhile is expected to continue with a third film in the main series planned, but nothing has been written or set dates as yet.
