John Krasinski Confirms A QUIET PLACE: PART III Is Coming and We Have a Release Date
The silence is officially breaking again. John Krasinski has finally confirmed that A Quiet Place: Part III is happening, and horror fans can mark their calendars for July 9, 2027. Krasinski will write and direct the film.
Following the tense cliffhanger ending of A Quiet Place Part II, fans have been curious to know what’s next for the Abbott family. While the franchise temporarily shifted focus to the prequel A Quiet Place: Day One, which introduced new characters and backstory, the mainline story has been sitting in a quiet corner, until now.
Krasinski made the announcement on Instagram, ending the silence with a single, powerful reveal: a release date.
The wait for the third installment has largely come down to timing and availability. Krasinski, who not only starred in the first film but directed both it and its sequel, has become one of the busiest actors in Hollywood. According to producer Brad Fuller, that’s been a major hurdle. He previously said:
“We’re starting to put it together right now. You know, when we made the first one, John [Krasinski] didn’t have a lot on his plate. He had just come off The Office, and he wanted to be a director. Now, he’s so in demand, and it’s hard to get him. He’s making a movie now, so as soon as he finishes that, hopefully, he will turn his attention to [A Quiet Place 3].”
With that confirmation, it feels like the wheels are finally in motion. Of course, the big question is what direction the story will take. The second film set up major possibilities, especially as it expanded the world and introduced other survivors.
One character fans are hoping might return is Joseph Quinn’s Eric from Day One. Given the prequel’s ending, which saw Eric leaving NYC with Djimon Hounsou’s Henri, who later appears in Part II, the threads are there.
It’s unclear what Krasinski’s plans are, but he might be keeping each chapter focused and isolated. But considering how Hollywood loves interconnected storytelling right now, it’s not out of the question.
