Filming kicked off back in February on A Quiet Place: Day One, and some first-look footage from the film was already shown off by Paramount during CinemaCon this afternoon.

The next installment in Paramount’s hit horror franchise, A Quiet Place: Day One is set to be a universe-expanding spinoff movie and it’s arriving in theaters on March 8, 2024.

The CinemaCon footage – which likely will not be making its way online anytime soon – confirms that A Quiet Place: Day One is set in a new location: New York City!

Discussing Film reports that the first footage “shows Lupita Nyong’o’s character in a bus as meteors crash into New York on Day One of the invasion.”

As the title suggests, Day One is definitely a PREQUEL tale.

Joseph Quinn (“Stranger Things”) and Alex Wolff (Hereditary) also star. Michael Sarnoski (Pig) is headed to A Quiet Place to direct the brand new movie.

No plot details are available at this time, but the upcoming spinoff is based on an original idea by John Krasinski, and it was written by Michael Sarnoski and Jeff Nichols.

Meanwhile, it’s expected that the Abbott family storyline will eventually become a trilogy with Krasinski recently teasing that he has ideas for the third film in the main series.

John Krasinski will produce alongside Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller via Platinum Dunes. A Quiet Place Part II opened to $57 million at the domestic box office in May 2021 and has earned $297 million worldwide, making it easy to see why this franchise is expanding.
