‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ Is the Official Title for Third Franchise Movie
During Paramount’s presentation at CinemaCon this afternoon it was revealed that A Quiet Place: Day One is the title of the next installment in the hit horror movie franchise.
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 September 22, 2023.
This one will be a PREQUEL to the first two Quiet Place movies. Stay tuned…
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.
Filming is underway on The Invisible Man director Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man for Universal and Blumhouse, which will be howling its way into theaters on January 17, 2025.
Deadline reports that Matilda Firth (Disenchanted) is the latest actor to sign on, joining Christopher Abbott (Poor Things), Julia Garner (The Royal Hotel), and Sam Jaeger.
The project will mark Whannell’s second monster movie and fourth directing collaboration with Blumhouse Productions (The Invisible Man, Upgrade, Insidious: Chapter 3).
Wolf Man stars Christopher Abbott as a man whose family is being terrorized by a lethal predator.
Writers include Whannell & Corbett Tuck as well as Lauren Schuker Blum & Rebecca Angelo.
Jason Blum is producing the film. Ryan Gosling, Ken Kao, Bea Sequeira, Mel Turner and Whannell are executive producers. Wolf Man is a Blumhouse and Motel Movies production.
In the wake of the failed Dark Universe, Leigh Whannell’s The Invisible Man has been the only real success story for the Universal Monsters brand, which has been struggling with recent box office flops including the comedic Renfield and period horror movie The Last Voyage of the Demeter. Giving him the keys to the castle once more seems like a wise idea, to say the least.
