Listen Later

A Quiet Place Part II is a 2021 American horror film and the sequel to the 2018 film A Quiet Place, both of which follow a family that is forced to navigate and survive in a post-apocalyptic world inhabited by blind aliens with an acute sense of hearing. The second installment of the Quiet Place series, the film was written, co-produced, and directed by John Krasinski under the studio Paramount Pictures. Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, and Noah Jupe reprise their roles from the first film while Cillian Murphy and Djimon Hounsou join the cast; Krasinski returns from the first film in a flashback sequence set before the first film.

Paramount Pictures began development of a sequel in April 2018 following the box-office and critical success of the first film. By the following August, Krasinski was writing the film, and he was hired in February 2019 to direct. Production took place in Western New York from June to September 2019. Krasinski was credited with writing the sequel based on characters created by Bryan Woods and Scott Beck for the first film. The sequel was ultimately produced on a budget of $61 million, over three times the original's $17 million.

The film had its world premiere in New York City on March 8, 2020, and after over a year of postponements due to the global COVID-19 pandemic, it was theatrically released in the United States on May 28, 2021. It will be available to stream on Paramount+ 45 days after its theatrical debut. The film set several box office records, including the biggest opening weekend of the COVID-19 pandemic, and has grossed $138 million worldwide. It received positive reviews from critics, who praised the story and addition of Murphy's character. A third installment is currently in development.
