What’s the story of ‘A Quiet Place so far’?
Emily Blunt as Evelyn Abbott in ‘A Quiet Place.’
Originally conceived and scripted by Bryan Woods and Scott Beck (with Krasinski working on the script when he agreed to direct and star), the first ‘A Quiet Place’ follows a family (Krasinski, real-life wife Emily Blunt and two kids) surviving in the aftermath of an alien invasion by blind aliens with incredibly powerful hearing who hunt and kill humans.
That movie enjoyed $50.2 million opening weekend, and a near $153M domestic and $341M global take, and received an Oscar nomination for Sound Editing.
Blunt, alongside young co-stars Noah Jupe and Millicent Simmonds returned for the sequel, ‘A Quiet Place: Part II’, written and directed by Krasinski, with Murphy joining the cast.
It saw its release pushed due to Covid, but brought the box office back alive during Memorial Day weekend 2021 with a $57M four-day start, ending with a $160M domestic and $297.3M global haul. A prequel, ‘A Quiet Place: Day One’, arrived in 2024, directed by Michael Sarnoski.
When will ‘A Quiet Place: Part III’ be on screens?
The movie is set for a July 30, 2027 release date.
