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 is 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.
Paramount and Platinum Dunes moved relatively quickly when turning A Quiet Place into a franchise. 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. John Krasinski and Paramount have plans to continue the Abbott family’s story with 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.
The Latest A Quiet Place 3 News
The most recent A Quiet Place 3 news offers an update from one of the franchise stars. Emily Blunt addressed A Quiet Place 3 possibilities and confirmed that it has recently been discussed with her husband and director John Krasinski, as well as Blunt’s Oppenheimer and A Quiet Place 2 co-star Cillian Murphy. Blunt reveals that “Cillian [Murphy] and I were having a chat with John [Krasinski] about it last night. We were sitting on a rooftop together drinking wine and… ‘You know what would be great? Is if we keep this going…‘”
This news isn’t a confirmation of any concrete plans for A Quiet Place 3, but it’s still positive to see that the key creative minds behind A Quiet Place are exploring how to continue the story. However, Blunt also revealed that there is a stipulation for her returning for the sequel as she suggested that “it would have to be that we would all do it together. I don’t want it to be with a different director if we did it again.” It has been unclear yet if Krasinski would return as director for the third movie, but it seems that if he choose not to, the sequel will lose Blunt as well.
A Quiet Place 3 Is Confirmed
A year after A Quiet Place 2‘s successful run at the box office, Paramount officially announced that A Quiet Place 3 was in the works and slated to hit theaters in 2025. As of now, the film is in development, with only John Krasinski attached as writer and a few cast members listed. The plot details of A Quiet Place 3 are being kept completely under wraps, but in an interview with Collider, his wife and co-star Emily Blunt admitted that her husband had a “whole arc of ideas” for the next installment to the trilogy.
A Quiet Place 3 Release Date
A Quiet Place 3 release date is not yet set, but Paramount had previously announced it will be in theaters sometime in 2025. However, there’s not been much in the way of an update since, and the combination of both Emily Blunt’s recent comments and the current WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes mean the 2025 release window could change. The best-case scenario for A Quiet Place 3‘s release date is early 2025, but a spring/summer launch in 2025 should be more likely at this point, considering A Quiet Place premiered in April and its sequel in May.
A Quiet Place 3 Cast
The A Quiet Place 3 cast is not yet known, but there are a number of possible returning faces. The Quiet Place franchise is built around the Abbott family, and that means A Quiet Place 3 should bring back most of them. Emily Blunt will be the star of a third film and continue to advance Evelyn’s story. It is also expected that Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe will return as her children, Regan and Marcus.
Lee Abbott might have died at the end of A Quiet Place, but flashbacks could allow Krasinski to return. As for the new additions to the cast of A Quiet Place 2, it remains to be seen if Cillian Murphy (Emmett), who developed a bond with Regan, or Djimon Hounsou will return. There would also of course be new cast members introduced in A Quiet Place 3, although there’s been no word on who these could be, rumors or otherwise.
A Quiet Place 3 Story
There are no official details available for A Quiet Place 3 story at this time, but Krasinski does have a tentative idea of where the trilogy capper could go narratively: A Quiet Place 2‘s main storyline saw Regan and Emmett track down a mysterious radio signal where they discover an island that’s a safe haven for humans. The question of how far the radio signal can go lingers after the end of the second film, despite the Abbott’s not being able to hear it in their home. Presumably, A Quiet Place 3 will try and extend this plot point, seeing the humans attempt to fight back.
Emily Blunt has said a Quiet Place trilogy has been planned. This story is set up by the end of A Quiet Place Part II. It is safe to say that the next installment of the franchise will continue to explore how humanity is fighting back against the aliens that are currently on Earth. Plus, the Abbott family should once again be at the core of how that chapter of this story is told.
A Quiet Place 3 Trailer
Unfortunately, there is no A Quiet Place 3 trailer. However, the movie is confirmed and is currently in the development stages. With a 2025 release window looming, it’s possible that production on the film could begin in 2024, which would give way for more promotional images and behind-the-scenes footage. Once filming for A Quiet Place 3 gets underway, it’s much more likely that news surrounding a trailer will become available.
