Attendees at CinemaCon were treated to the first look at A Quiet Place prequel that shows how the alien attacks began. The movie will focus on a new character played by Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong’o and helmed by Pig director Michael Sarnoski.
While the film still has a year before release, the footage gave us an idea of how the first day went down. It opens up in New York City and Lupita’s unnamed character on the bus with her cat. Suddenly there are strange giant sounds all around. The bus stops and the invasion begins right there and then. The back half of her bus is ripped off and we see New Yorkers standing in the street staring at the ships crashing to earth, looking like a meteor shower.
There’s also footage of people learning they have to be silent, to survive and there is a lot of chaos. It’s A Quiet Place in one of the loudest cities on Earth. The footage ended with Lupita crawling under a car to hide, but someone being attacked by an alien grabs her feet, begging for help.
This will be the third film in the Quiet Place franchise and follows the 2020 sequel, which featured Emily Blunt’s character and family from the first movie.
A Quiet Place: Day One is scheduled to arrive in theaters March 4, 2024.
