John Krasinski, the director of A Quiet Place, finally shared a few behind-the-scenes images of the movie’s sequel and a report from Trailer Track says that the film’s first footage has been rated and a teaser will be dropping in a few weeks.
The ‘first look’ is reported to only be 30 seconds; the 2018 film was a huge success and fans are excited to have a peek at the much-awaited teaser, even if it is as short as reports claim.
The apocalyptic world where monstrous creatures roam around and attack anything that creates sound forces a family to live a life of silence on an almost no-speaking policy, a kind of lifestyle that seems difficult to manage now that a baby is coming.
Krasinski is returning to write the sequel and, according to him, it will focus on the origin of these monsters. He also teased that it would depict stories of other groups of survivors and how they managed to survive.
The thought that occurred to me, that really excited me about it, was that most sequels are about the return of a hero or a villain. You take this character that people loved once and you bring them back, and you have to create a new world around them.

Original writers Scott Beck and Brian Woods won’t be returning to the team anytime soon.
“As creators of essentially the movie and the franchise, we always have our hand in the mix,” Beck shared to ComicBook.com. “But what was really funny about opening weekend last year is, it was almost immediate that the studio announced there’d be a sequel. What our reaction was, and what John’s reaction was, like, ‘I don’t know if it needs a sequel.'”

Beck always envisioned the movie as a standalone film. Thus, Beck and Woods would be passively involved in the making. He also said that Krasinski had the idea in mind and suddenly took the shot and ran with it.
A Quiet Place: Part II will arrive in theaters on March 20, 2020.
