‘A Quiet Place II’ Trailer: The People That Are Left Are Not The Ones Worth Saving

John Krasinski had an established and respectful indie filmmaking career (“Brief Interviews with Hideous Men,” “The Hollars”), but it wasn’t until the Hitchock-ian horror, family drama, “A Quiet Place,” that his directorial career launched into the stratosphere. “A Quiet Place” was a massive worldwide hit and in doing so has spawned its own sequel and potential ongoing franchise.

Krasinski, who has also distinguished himself in comedic roles such as “The Office” and sobering dramas such as Amazon Prime’s “Jack Ryan,” found himself filling the shoes of both director and actor in the acclaimed thriller, playing Mr. Abbott, the defender of the primary family which is followed throughout the plot of the first film.

However, spoiler, he sacrificed himself for the safety of his loved ones to which end the character met his undoing. But this loss is not total as Krasinski has returned to the writing and director chair for “A Quiet Place: Part II” which looks like it will plunge audiences back into the hushed, apocalyptic world overrun with the alien beasts which hunt by their heightened sense of hearing.

Here’s the official synopsis:

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.

The protection and survival of the Abbott clan are now more than ever the responsibility of Mrs. Abbott and of her two eldest children, Regan and Marcus. Her newborn baby, tender and innocent, presents a danger in a world where a simple sound can be a matter of life or death. The widow has already lost one child to these predatory brutes, and she does not plan on losing any more.

The actors from the first film who portrayed the Abbott family members return to reprise their roles. Millicent Simmonds returns as Regan, Noah Jupe as Marcus, and the revered Emily Blunt as their mother. Additional cast members include Djimon Hounsou (“Guardians of the Galaxy”), Cillian Murphy (“Dunkirk”), and Wayne Duvall (“Lincoln”). “A Quiet Place: Part II” is set for U.S. release on March 20, 2020.
