A Quiet Place 3 news has been slow, but there is still a lot of hope for more from the acclaimed horror franchise. Paramount found a surprise franchise starter in 2018 when John Krasinski’s A Quiet Place was praised by critics and became a box office hit. After several delays caused by COVID-19 shutting down theaters, A Quiet Place 2 moved from early 2020 to the summer of 2021. The sequel was once again directed by Krasinski and stars Emily Blunt as Evelyn Abbott, who continues to guide her children through an alien-plagued existence where any sound can get them killed.

It has been announced that Mud director Jeff Nichols is writing and directing a Quiet Place spinoff in 2024, known as A Quiet Place: Day One. This A Quiet Place prequel will detail the initial invasion of the terrifying sound-sensitive aliens — and while it will be the third A Quiet Place movie, it isn’t A Quiet Place 3. The story of A Quiet Place Part II sets up how this franchise can continue to form a proper trilogy, and what’s been teased of A Quiet Place 3 so far shows that all due care is being taken to only move forward with a worthy next chapter.
