John Krasinski, director and star of A Quiet Place, has said that the film’s sequel might focus on different survivors.
A Quiet Place is one of the biggest surprise hits of the year, with the Emily Blunt led film joining other recent horror hits high up in the box office rankings while also receiving praise from critics.
The movie has done so well that a sequel is already on the way and John Krasinski has revealed some of his ideas for what the next movie might entail. Speaking to Deadline, the actor/director said:
“The thing that I loved in the movie, where my mind kept wandering as we were making it, was the question of who was on the other end of those fires, when the father lights the fire and in the distance those other fires light up. How did those people survive? How did that old man survive?
“In the extreme these characters are going through, there’s no room to think about that. They’re there, there’s an old man who’s about to scream, they just have to deal with that. I think it would be interesting to see what’s going on elsewhere at this same time.”
Focusing elsewhere in the A Quiet Place universe would certainly help the sequel to remain fresh but what do you think? Would you rather see more of what you loved from the first film or do you agree with Krasinski that looking at other survivors would be the way to go?
