One of the most lovable characters who got a lot of us teary-eyed towards the end of ‘Stranger Things Season 4’ was actor Joseph Quinn, who played the goofy schoolmate of the OG team- Eddie Munson. The series was also his breakout role, with critics universally praising his performance. And by the looks of it, it seems he has found his next big venture- Paramount’s horror thriller ‘A Quiet Place: Day One’.
As per reports, he is in negotiations to join the movie, opposite Oscar-winning actress and ‘Black Panther’ star Lupita Nyong’o. The movie is expected not to be a threequel to the previous two films, but a spin-off film stemming from an idea of the director of the two movies- John Krasinski.
The spinoff will be directed and written by ‘Pig’ helmer Michael Sarnoski. The hope is this film will help set up a potential Quiet Place universe that the studio can build on for years to come. It also is known that, while not out of the question, Emily Blunt and Krasinski likely won’t reprise their roles in this installment.
‘A Quiet Place’, the first movie of the series starring Krasinski and his real-life wife and ‘Edge of Tomorrow’ star Emily Blunt was a sleeper hit, grossing over $340M against a $17M budget. With the second film releasing in the pandemic era and yet performing well in theatres and upon digital release, there are huge hopes for the third film.
The movie is slated for release on March 8, 2024.
