Joseph Quinn to Join Lupita Nyong’o in  Quiet Place: Day One

Earlier this month, we reported that Lupita Nyong’o was in talks to star in Paramount’s A Quiet Place: Day One, a spin-off to the horror film A Quiet Place. Now the recent Stranger Things breakout star Joseph Quinn is in talks to star opposite Nyong’o.

Quinn recently received widespread acclaim when he joined the cast of the hit Netflix series Stranger Things as Eddie Munson for the highly anticipated fourth season. His role won the hearts of viewers and had them eagerly waiting to see where the actor will show up next. 

A Quiet Place: Day One is set to be directed by Michael Sarnoski, who recently earned acclaim for his directorial debut Pig. Sarnoski is also writing the film based on an idea by John Krasinski, who wrote and directed the first two films in the franchise. Michael Bay, Andrew Form, and Brad Fuller will be producing A Quiet Place: Day One through Platinum Dunes while Krasinski will be doing the same with his production banner Sunday Night. Additionally, Allyson Seeger will serve as an executive producer on the prequel spin-off through Saturday Night.

A Quiet Place: Day One is slated to hit theatres on March 8, 2024.
