A Quiet Place Part III will hit theaters in 2025

By Blair Marnell February 16, 2022

Paramount kept busy during yesterday’s Viacom CBS Investor Day by revealing its plans for Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Star Trek 4, and more. Now, another Paramount franchise is getting a fresh installment. Via Deadline, John Krasinski revealed that A Quiet Place Part III is coming to theaters in 2025. Krasinski didn’t reveal if he will once again direct the sequel, but the project is still in development and the details may not be finalized yet.

Krasinski co-wrote the script and directed the first film in the franchise, A Quiet Place. He also co-headlined the movie with his real-life wife, Emily Blunt. In the postapocalyptic future depicted in the story, Lee (Krasinski) and Evelyn Abbott (Blunt) are a married couple who are among the few survivors after aliens wiped out most of the human race. Millicent Simmonds played their deaf daughter, Regan Abbott, while Noah Jupe played their surviving son, Marcus Abbott.

The key gimmick behind the film was that the aliens sensed and were attracted to sound. To protect themselves, the Abbott family stayed as quiet as possible at all times.

The first film was made for only $17 million, but it went on to earn $350.3 million worldwide. The sequel, A Quiet Place Part II, was release in 2021. That film only pulled in $297.4 million worldwide from a budget that was approximately $60. But given the ongoing pandemic conditions, it was still one of the biggest box office hits of last year.

Deadline notes that A Quiet Place Part III is separate from the Quiet Place spinoff that is being written and helmed by the director of Pig, Michael Sarnoski. Krasinksi came up with the premise for the spinoff, but neither he nor Paramount have revealed details. We may have to wait for that film to hit theaters on September 22, 2023, before we find out for sure.

3 underrated (HBO) Max movies you should watch this weekend (June 28-30)

A girl looks at a boy in House at the End of the Street.

June is surprisingly over, and with it, a great month for movies comes to a satisfactory close. You've probably watched Inside Out 2 or Bad Boys: Ride or Die or maybe even The Bikeriders. From blockbusters to indie fare, the theatrical movie business has been robust and healthy.

The same goes for streaming. Netflix had a big hit with Richard Linklater's Hit Man, while Amazon Prime Video recently premiered the latest bonkers season of The Boys. HBO and Max have been quieter, but their robust library speaks volumes to the streamer's high quality. The following three films are older, but are just as worth your time as new hits like House of the Dragon season 2.

The best Netflix original series right now

Eric and Benedict Cumberbatch in Eric.

The era of Peak TV was also Peak Netflix, because the streamer seemingly had an endless supply of new original series. So far in 2024, that hasn't been the case. Whether we'll ever get the same level of content again seems unlikely for now. But even in a reduced capacity, Netflix still has a few new additions to its lineup of originals.

For the month of June, we're adding the '80s-set thriller, Eric, which stars Benedict Cumbebatch. Our other pick for the month is Supacell, which is Netflix's new British series that remixes some old superhero archetypes. That's not a very big selection for fans who always want something new, but this roundup of the best Netflix original series really does have all of the top options in one place for you. All you have to do is scroll down and make time to binge watch some shows.
