Details are sparse in these early days, but what we do know is that this film will be a spin-off rather than a sequel to the hit horror franchise, and it’s based on an idea from its original creative head, John Krasinski.

The spin-off is geared towards setting up a universe that can lay the foundation for several years of A Quiet Place films and projects. According to Deadline, the film is likely to hit screens sometime in 2024.

It’s not surprising that a series of films is likely to follow the highly successful 2018 original. Even the sequel, which came out in the midst of the pandemic, managed to score $297 million (£250m) worldwide at the box office.

It’s not confirmed if Krasinski and Emily Blunt, who played his on-screen wife in the previous films, will be returning to the screen, but it seems unlikely at this stage. But with Joseph Quinn and Lupita Nyong’o already on board, who’s complaining?
