The plot of the much-anticipated sequel to the 2018 horror hit is being kept in a sound-proof bunker, but we do know that Murphy will play a man with “mysterious intentions who joins the family unit” lead by Blunt’s matriarch.<\/p>\n

He and Blunt will also be joined by child actors Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe, who are\u00a0reprising their roles\u00a0from the first film as the children of Blunt’s character. Krasinski will also be writing the sequel (he originally did a rewrite on\u00a0Scott Beck and Bryan Woods’\u00a0A Quiet Place<\/em> script).<\/p>\n

The first movie was a sleeper hit last year, grossing $340 million worldwide on a budget of $17 million — and spawning a promising franchise along the way.<\/p>\n

Paramount Pictures is eying a summer 2019 shoot for the sequel, which is slated to arrive in theaters May 15, 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
