Directed, written and produced by John Krasinski, the film would have gone up against James Gunn’s Superman follow-up Man of Tomorrow on its original July 9 date, but so far it has July 30 to itself.

The A Quiet Place franchise has grossed over $900 million worldwide across its three films, which is comprised of John Krasinski’s A Quiet Place and A Quiet Place Part II, and the Michael Sarnoski-directed spinoff A Quiet Place: Day One.
The first A Quiet Place took off like a rocketship at SXSW in 2018, leading to an overindexing $50.2 million opening weekend, and a near $153M domestic and $341M global take. The pic, which starred Krasinski, wife Emily Blunt, Noah Jupe and Millicent Simmonds, received an Oscar nomination for Sound Editing.
A Quiet Place Part II, which saw its release pushed due to Covid, brought the box office back alive during Memorial Day weekend 2021 with a $57M four-day start, ending with a $160M domestic and $297.3M global haul. Blunt, Jupe and Simmonds returned for the sequel, which nabbed a BAFTA nomination for Best Sound.
Last summer, A Quiet Place: Day One, a prequel set in an apocalyptic New York City ravaged by the aliens and starring Oscar winner Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn, debuted to $52.2M and legged out to $139M domestic and $262M global.
LOVED the first one. Second one wasn’t even close. Not sure I’ll go to a third, and most likely thinner, movie.
Its an even quieter place
Joseph Quinn and Lupita Nyong’o kept this franchise going. They are the only reason I watched Day One after the original was an absolute snoozefest. I’d only watch this new movie if Joseph Quinn returns.
It’s wild how people comment like this movie franchise sucks. I think financially it clearly shows that people like this movie franchise and the fact that krasinski is coming back to direct, definitely means this third one’s going to probably be great too. I think he’s showing that he’s a pretty solid director. Just saying. So I don’t get the random negative control comments that stuff’s just stupid. It’s quality work at a time where there are no new ideas. Like seriously come on.
And hopefully it’s the last one.
I hope they make another one just because of what you said.
