A Quiet Place Part 3 is officially on the way with a July 9, 2027, release date and John Krasinski reportedly back to serve as its writer and director.
Paramount Pictures confirmed the release date news with a post on the official A Quiet Place X/Twitter account. It’s a post that comes with the new A Quiet Place Part 3 logo and little else, as the film sets a course to return to its silent, sci-fi horrors in a little less than two years.
Deadline reports that there are a few other details accompanying today’s announcement, though. This includes the news that original star and director, Krasinski, is attached to write and direct A Quiet Place Part 3. He’s also producing alongside Allyson Seeger’s Sunday Night Productions, with Platinum Dunes also on board. The former The Office star touched on his involvement with his own post on Instagram.
Story details for A Quiet Place Part 3 remain under wraps, but its name signals that viewers can expect a return to the storyline that began with the original movie. This mainline section of the A Quiet Place universe focuses on Emily Blunt’s Evelyn Abbott and her three children: Regan (Millicent Simmonds), Marcus (Noah Jupe), and an unnamed baby.
Their story began with the original, small-scale thriller, simply titled A Quiet Place, in 2018. A direct sequel, A Quiet Place Part 2, followed with a theatrical premiere in 2021, upping its number of sound-sensitive aliens and stars with appearances from the likes of Cillian Murphy, Djimon Hounsou, and more. A spinoff, A Quiet Place: Day One, premiered in 2024 and follows a new cast led by Lupita Nyong’o, Joseph Quinn, and Alex Wolff.
Day One featured some loose connections to the original storyline but ultimately served as an in-between tale that could be watched without the context of the previous two movies. It also saw Krasinski step back from a directing role to focus on writing instead. Assuming A Quiet Place Part 3 ties back into Part 2 when it arrives in 2027, it will be the first time audiences have seen more from the original post-apocalyptic family in six years.
