Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterParamount Pictures has given a taste of its upcoming theatrical film slate. During its annual investor day presentation on Tuesday, the studio announced plans for “A Quiet Place 3,” as well as another sequel to “Sonic the Hedgehog.”“A Quiet Place Part III” will debut in 2025.
Details have been vague, including whether or not John Krasinski will return to write and direct or if stars Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, and Noah Jupe will be back. However, their participation seems likely because the upcoming movie is being billed as a direct sequel to 2021’s pandemic-era box office hit “A Quiet Place Part II.”After steering “A Quiet Place” to critical and commercial glory, Krasinski wrote and directed the sequel, which opened in May 2021 and grossed nearly $300 million globally, a huge feat amid COVID-19.
The third installment is separate from writer-director Michael Sarnoski’s upcoming “A Quiet Place” installment, which takes place in the post-apocalyptic world where talking and making sounds of any kind is a big no-no. Paramount has yet to announce who will star in the film, but the studio has scheduled it to release in theaters on Sept.
