John Krasinski already knows where he wants A Quiet Place Part III to go

While we’re miffed that the release of A Quiet Place Part II has been pushed back over that damned virus (here), we have no doubt it will be worth even the extended wait.

And, better still, it seems that writer, director and creator of the horror/sci-fi adventure John Krasinski is already exploring ideas for where to go next.

In a new interview  Krasinski explains that the more he gets into the world, the further he wants to go: “It’s interesting, I genuinely hadn’t thought about a second one when I was doing the first one.

“However, I really had these questions while I was doing it. I put the fires out in the distance in the first one, and I always thought to myself, ‘Wouldn’t it be cool if we got to explore where those fires lead to? Who’s on the other end of those fires?’ But I never thought that there would be a sequel.

“then when I actually came around to writing the sequel, I started with the fires. And so this time, I think when my brain started wandering of questions of what would this mean later on, I started to write down notes in case I could prepare myself for a third one.”

It’s interesting that he was at first reluctant to make a sequel but let’s hope it was a good movie when the movie drops down the line… and then, you know we’ll all be hungry for a third instalment.

Thoughts?

Following the deadly events at home, the Abbott family (Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe) must now face the terrors of the outside world as they continue their fight for survival in silence. Forced to venture into the unknown, they quickly realize that the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats that lurk beyond the sand path.

A Quiet Place Part II is set for release on March 20th and features returning cast members Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe and John Krasinski alongside Cillian Murphy (Peaky Blinders) and Djimon Hounsou (Captain Marvel).

He’s a dad of two who now doesn’t have the time (or money) to collect the amount of toys, comics, movies and books he once did, much to the relief of his long-suffering wife. In the real world he’s a graphic designer. He started Following the Nerd because he was tired of searching a million sites every day for all the best news that he loves and decided to create one place where you can go to get the whole lot. Secretly he longs to be sitting in the cockpit of his YT-1300 Corellian Transport ship with his co-pilot Chewie, roaming the universe, waiting for his next big adventure, but feels just at home watching cartoons with his kids….
