“A Quiet Place,” a near dialogue-less screenplay following a family living in a universe with monsters who track and kill whatever they hear, was a smash success at the box office.
- The film cost $17 million to make and made $340 million worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo.
- It has since been nominated for a Sound Editing Oscar for Ethan Van der Ryn and Erik Aadahl’s work on the film.
It’s anticipated the sequel will follow Blunt’s character Evelyn Abbott and her children as they try to survive their post-apocalyptic world.
