Krasinski also wrote the screenplay with Bryan Woods and Scott Beck, and the trio received a Writers Guild nomination in the original category. Paramount studio announced in August that it had dated the sequel to "A Quiet Place" for May 15, 2020.
Krasinski directed and starred in the story of an isolated family of four that must live in silence while hiding from creatures that hunt by sound. He has been working on the script for the sequel with Woods and Beck and announced last month that he was directing the project.
