With A Quiet Place scoring $340 million in the theatrical circuit back in 2018 on its $20 million or so budget, it wasn’t any surprise at all that a sequel was put into motion. That film finally hit on May 28th, 2021 where it did $57 million across the four-day holiday debut.
While a third film is likely to come at some point, a spinoff film has now instead been put on the schedule for a March 31st, 2023 debut.
This project is being written and directed by Jeff Nichols based on an idea by John Krasinski that’s intended to broaden the world overall. Which makes a lot of sense as you could easily do a kind of Cloverfield-like plan with this and populate the world with a really different variety of stories and characters.
Plot Concept: Following the deadly events at home, the Abbott family (Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe) must now face the terrors of the outside world as they continue their fight for survival in silence. Forced to venture into the unknown, they quickly realize that the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats that lurk beyond the sand path.
