A Quiet Place: Day One is a prequel to the Quiet Place movies directed by John Krasinski and starring Krasinski and Emily Blunt.

The new film takes place in New York prior to the events of A Quiet Place (2018), on "day one" of the alien invasion by sightless monsters that hunt by sound.

The trailer shows Nyong'o's character flee with her cat alongside a character played by Quinn (Stranger Things) as aliens rain down from the sky and terrorize humans in the streets of New York City.

The pair later meet a man who calls the disaster the "end of days."

Djimon Hounsou reprises his role from A Quiet Place Part II (2020).

Paramount shared a first trailer for the film in February.

A Quiet Place: Day One is written and directed by Michael Sarnoski, with Krasinski, Michael Bay, Andrew Form and Brad Fuller as producers.
