Co-writer/director John Krasinski's hit horror-thriller A QUIET PLACE (co-starring his wife Emily Blunt) was unanimously one of the very best films of 2018. Horror or otherwise. In fact, here at AITH, the movie not only made our 10 Best Films of 2018 list (read that HERE) but the movie also landed a top spot on our Five Best Scenes of 2018 countdown (which you can read right over HERE). Needless to say, the film is a new classic for sure.

We already know A QUIET PLACE 2 is in the works and we know that Krasinski is already penning the script (and possibly returning to direct). But today we have word via Production Weekly that the sequel is looking to head back to upstate New York for principal photography this summer. This has me thinking that we'll be getting word sooner rather than later on whether or not Krasinski will be directing this movie as well or be replaced.

And since we're on the topic, if not Krasinski, who would YOU like to see take the reins of A QUIET PLACE 2? Let us know below! Meanwhile, the original film was based on a screenplay written by Krasinski along with Bryan Woods and Scott Beck and is:

A taut and original thriller that follows a family who must navigate their lives in silence to avoid mysterious creatures that hunt by sound. Knowing that even the slightest whisper or footstep can bring death, Evelyn (Emily Blunt) and Lee (John Krasinski) are determined to find a way to protect their children at all costs while they desperately search for a way to fight back. The film earned a 95% fresh score on Rotten Tomatoes and generated an extraordinary $175M+ at the domestic box office.

The flick is now available on Digital, 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack, Blu-ray Combo Pack and DVD. You can pick up a copy on Blu-ray HERE.
