An American film magazine has released the first look of 2018's unexpectedly huge horror A Quiet Place. The teaser image shows Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, and Noah Jupe as Evelyn and her three kids. Krasinski, whose character died at the end of the first film, and who is also the filmmaker, told the magazine that the sequel will see Blunt's character struggle with the concept of thriving versus surviving. He added that he liked the first part more in which Emily and he were all about surviving versus the thriving. Emily wanted to thrive and give her kids a normal life and Krasinski opposed it. In the second installment, the idea of thriving proves quite dangerous, he explained.

In a podcast interview, Krasinski said of the thought process behind his sequel. He said that sequels are about a villain returning or a hero returning, and one has to build this entire world around. And that's where a lot of sequels go wrong as the entire thing is fabricated just to make that person work, he explained.
