“A Quiet Place: Day One” VFX Supervisor Malcolm Humphreys on Conjuring More Detailed “Death Angels”
A Quiet Place: Day One (now in theaters) personalizes its sci-fi mythology by centering the action around a cancer-stricken poet who’s hell-bent on getting a slice of her favorite pizza, alien invasion be damned. Written and directed by Michael Samoski, maker of indie shocker Pig, the prequel casts Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o (Us, 12 Years a Slave) as Samira, who tries to escape the monsters’
“A Quiet Place: Day One” Director Michael Sarnoski on Creating Emotional Stakes & Killer Silences
A Quiet Place: Day One turns up the action, tension, and scares. For filmmaker Michael Sarnoski, though, creating real emotional connections with his (mostly) new cast in the A Quiet Place world was key. Sarnoski wanted to maintain the intimacy from John Krasinski’s first two films, which depict a world run by blind, sound-hunting monsters who, in the first two films, had already established their dominance on Earth. On Day One,
How “A Quiet Place: Day One” Production Designer Simon Bowles Harnessed VR to Unleash Aliens on NYC
When John Krasinki released A Quiet Place in 2018, the sonically immersive horror film made audiences hold their breath. Three years later, he followed the success of that film with an expansive sequel that saw the surviving members of the Abbott family run from their rural home in Part II.

Final “A Quiet Place: Day One” Trailer Finds Frodo the Cat in Danger
The final trailer for Paramount’s prequel A Quiet Place: Day One combines new footage with quotes from critics, many of whom were blown away by director Michael Sarnoski’s prequel. The final peek also reveals the lengths people will go to for a beloved cat, in this case, Frodo (played by two kitties, Nico and Schnitzel).

The first reactions are pouring in (or are they purring in?) for Paramount’s prequel A Quiet Place: Day One, indicating that writer/director Michael Sarnoski has pulled off a properly satisfying lens-widener on the sci-fi horror franchise created by John Krasinski.

First Trailer for “A Quiet Place: Day One” Reveals the Lupita Nyong’o-led Prequel
We saw what the world was like on day 472 of the reign of the sound-hunting aliens in John Krasinski’s 2018 original A Quiet Place. At that point, the Abbott family (played by Krasinski, Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, and Noah Jupe) had already figured out how to survive in their new world—the answer was right there in the film’s title. They’d already suffered a horrific loss when their youngest son, Beau (Cade Woodward),
Which Movie Trailers Might You See During the Super Bowl
The Super Bowl is this coming Sunday, which means football fans (especially fans of the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers) will be enjoying three hours of heaven, but there’s another subset of fans that enjoy the big game—those who tune in for the highly produced ads often boasting major stars.

First up, A Quiet Place: Day One—kudos for them nailing that title, by the way—will hit theaters on March 8, 2024. This is a slight move from the original release date of September 23, 2023.
