In the modern horror thriller A Quiet Place, a family of four must navigate their lives in silence after mysterious creatures that hunt by sound threaten their survival. If they hear you, they hunt you.

When John Krasinski first read an early draft of the script for A Quiet Place by screenwriting duo Bryan Woods & Scott Beck (Nightlight), the terrifying premise hit home especially hard. Krasinski’s wife, Emily Blunt, had just given birth to their second daughter and he was already spending his nights in the whispering quietude and anxiety of new parenthood. In that atmosphere, he was utterly transported by the idea of a family’s nerve-jangling, high stakes search for safety, as well as their vital need for connection, in a world where so much as a single cry or heavy footstep could bring instant demise. The story seemed to encompass the most virulent fears of parenthood—turned up to 11.

With A Quiet Place, Krasinski’s aim is to keep the audience actively submersed in the center of this quiet world that can suddenly explode with discord and horror at any moment.

He says: “I want the audience to be asking the whole way: What would I do in this situation? How would I stay quiet? What would I do to make sure my family makes it through?”

“I hope the movie provides a thrilling, frightening experience but also one that shows you the strength of a family,” Krasinski concludes. “The family have only each other to rely on and there is nowhere else to go, nowhere they can escape. They have to stay on their family farm and learn how to survive together. In that sense, it is their love for each other, their understanding of each other, that becomes their greatest power and how they might find a chance to live another day.”
