A Quiet Place 2: 7 Big News Revelations About The Upcoming Sequel
2. Krasinski Is Back (Behind The Camera)
The big news is that Krasinski is also officially returning to direct the sequel.
In the past, though he has been open about his writing process, he's also been quick to say that he didn't want to return as a director unless he felt confident he could deliver something special. As he said in the past;
"Paramount was asking a bunch of writers and directors what they might do with it, and to their credit, they didn’t take any of those pitches because they felt a little more franchise-y. Meanwhile, I had this tiny idea that fit that world and could be exciting. Paramount asked if I would write it and I’m doing that now, but I’m still thinking about what I want to do next. If I can crack the idea, I would love to direct it again, and if I can’t, I would love to give it to someone else with my fingerprints on it to make sure it’s being taken care of. I know that anyone reading this will be like, “Yeah right, art guy,” but I do have sort of a parental feeling about this movie, and I don’t want “A Quiet Place” to turn into an action movie where 400 people have machine guns. Or did I give away the ending to the sequel?"
Thankfully, Krasinski is returning, so audiences will indeed get to see this 'intimate' and personal sequel.
