The next installment in Paramount’s hit horror franchise is A Quiet Place: Day One, and Deadline reports today that Lupita Nyong’o (Jordan Peele’s Us) has been set to star.
Fresh off last year’s Nicolas Cage-starring Pig, an excellent revenge drama that bucks expectations at every turn, Michael Sarnoski is headed to A Quiet Place with the third installment in the franchise, said to be a spinoff movie that Sarnoski will be directing. Last we heard, A Quiet Place: Day One will be unleashed in theaters on March 8, 2024.
The upcoming spinoff is based on an original idea by John Krasinski.
Deadline reports, “The hope is this film would help set up a potential Quiet Place universe that the studio can build on for years to come. It is also known that, while not out of the question, Emily Blunt and Krasinski likely would not reprise their roles in this installment.”
John Krasinski will produce alongside Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller.
Meanwhile, it’s expected that the Abbott family storyline will eventually become a trilogy with Krasinski recently teasing that he has ideas for the third film in the main series.
