It’s been two years since the last A Quiet Place movie hit theaters, and for some time now we’ve known to expect another in 2024. Titled A Quiet Place: Day One and directed by Pig‘s Michael Sarnoski, the film is something of a spin-off, one that won’t focus on the Emily Blunt-led family that’s been front and center in the previous two A Quiet Place movies.
Well, yesterday Paramount played a little game of musical chairs with the release dates of several of its movies, and A Quiet Place: Day One has been moved from its original March 8th release date to one a few months further down the line: June 28th, 2024. It’s not a huge delay (particularly not compared to the next Mission: Impossible, which the studio just bumped all the way into 2025), but still – we’re gonna be waiting a bit longer for whatever A Quiet Place: Day One has in store for us.
A Quiet Place: Day One was written by Sarnoski and Jeff Nichols (Take Shelter), from an idea hatched by John Krasinski. It’s expected that Krasinski will return to helm another installment of the franchise, one which will return its attention to the storyline established in the first two A Quiet Place movies, but as of this writing there doesn’t appear to be anything solid to report on that project.
Sarnoski’s A Quiet Place: Day One stars Lupita Nyongโo,ย Joseph Quinn, andย Alex Wolff. We don’t know much about its plot, but the film will apparently focus on the day those pesky, noise-hating aliens first landed on Earth and started wrecking our shit.
Stay tuned for more on A Quiet Place: Day One as further updates become available.
