How Many A Quiet Place Movies Are There?

There are three released A Quiet Place movies, two main films and one spin-off, and a fourth main film is now in production. The saga began with A Quiet Place (2018), directed by John Krasinski, which reached US theaters on April 6, 2018 and runs 91 minutes. A Quiet Place Part II, also directed by Krasinski, followed on May 28, 2021 at 97 minutes. The spin-off prequel A Quiet Place: Day One, directed by Michael Sarnoski, opened on June 28, 2024 and runs 100 minutes. All three carry a PG-13 rating in the US. For the wider series, the A Quiet Place movies hub is the place to start.

The split between main films and spin-off is partly about people. Krasinski directed both main films, Marco Beltrami composed both scores, and the Abbott family carries the story, with Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe in both casts. Day One brings in composer Alexis Grapsas and a fresh set of leads, headed by Lupita Nyong'o as Samira and Joseph Quinn as Eric. If you want to know who is who, the A Quiet Place characters and A Quiet Place cast pages cover the faces, and individual profiles exist for Evelyn Abbott, Lee Abbott, Regan Abbott, Marcus Abbott and Emmett, who arrives in Part II played by Cillian Murphy.

Yes, all three films share one world, where sightless creatures with extremely sharp hearing hunt anything that makes noise, but Day One follows different characters from the Abbotts. The first film sets the rules on an isolated farm in New York, where the Abbotts talk in American Sign Language and a toy with a switch becomes a deadly object. Part II opens on the first day of the invasion at a small town baseball game, then jumps ahead and describes the creatures as blind and armored. Day One is a prequel set in New York City, where Sam, a terminally ill cancer patient with her service cat, Frodo, joins a group trip from her hospice to see a marionette show in Manhattan. Sam and Eric have their own profiles as Sam in A Quiet Place: Day One and Eric in A Quiet Place: Day One. The monster itself has a page under A Quiet Place creatures, and the A Quiet Place rules page covers how people stay alive.

The count of three splits into two main films and one spin-off because the Abbott family drives the first two and Day One steps away from them, a division that also tracks how each film was made. It could be argued that the series grew in scale with each entry. A Quiet Place (2018) cost $17 million and was shot on 35mm, with the grain silo scenes filmed practically and creature work from ILM under visual effects supervisor Scott Farrar, according to the Motion Picture Association. Screen Global Production reported that the shoot ran through Pawling, New Paltz and Little Falls in New York, including 24 acres of corn. That farm setting is why the first film feels like a chamber piece: a few people, one property, and a creature that can arrive at any moment.

Part II widened the map on a $61 million budget, and its baseball game opening is the clearest bridge to the spin-off, because it shows the invasion arriving in a small town on the first day. Day One, on a $67 million budget, takes that idea to a whole city. According to Post Magazine, Sarnoski shot at Leavesden and built sets there, redressed a Chinatown location as Harlem, and worked with ILM on just over 400 visual effects shots. In my judgment as a creature design nerd, that is why the film works as a spin-off rather than a third Abbott chapter: the threat is the same, but the rules are learned in public, by strangers, with crowds as the hazard. One detail that sets it apart from the other two is Frodo. Two cats played the role, and Sarnoski told Variety there was no CG cat, as syndicated on Yahoo.

There are two sensible orders, release order and chronological order, and they differ only in where Day One goes. Release order is A Quiet Place (2018), A Quiet Place Part II, then A Quiet Place: Day One. Chronological order starts with Day One, then runs A Quiet Place (2018) and A Quiet Place Part II, because Day One is the prequel. The full explanation sits on the A Quiet Place movies in order page, and the A Quiet Place timeline lays the events out step by step.

Yes, A Quiet Place Part III is in production and is scheduled for release in the US on July 30, 2027. Krasinski announced on Instagram in August 2025 that he was returning to write, direct and produce, and Variety Australia reported that Paramount Pictures had dated the film for July 9, 2027. Deadline later reported the move to July 30, and TheWrap quoted Krasinski giving that same date in March 2026. Principal photography began in New York City's Chinatown in May 2026, according to Deadline. The film is produced by Sunday Night Productions and Platinum Dunes, with Allyson Seeger credited as a producer alongside Krasinski.

Deadline reports the cast rather than the studio confirming it: Emily Blunt as Evelyn Abbott, Cillian Murphy as Emmett, Millicent Simmonds as Regan Abbott and Noah Jupe as Marcus Abbott, with Jack O'Connell, Jason Clarke and Katy O'Brian also named. The roles for those last three have not been reported, and no trade report has confirmed that filming has wrapped. Status, dates and cast are tracked on the A Quiet Place Part III page, and official footage is gathered on the A Quiet Place Part III trailer page.

Each released film grossed between $262 million and $341 million worldwide, according to Box Office Mojo. A Quiet Place (2018) earned about $341 million on a $17 million budget, Part II earned about $298 million on a $61 million budget, and Day One earned about $262 million on a $67 million budget, with budgets from The Numbers. The A Quiet Place box office page breaks the figures into domestic and international takings.

In the US, all three films stream on Paramount+, and Day One also streams on Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, according to JustWatch data via TMDB checked on November 3, 2026. HBO Max does not appear among the US subscription services listed for any of the three. In Australia, the first two films list Netflix, Paramount Plus and Stan, while Day One is rental or purchase only. In the UK, the first two list Paramount Plus, A Quiet Place (2018) also lists Amazon Prime Video, and Day One is rental or purchase only. Streaming lines change often, so the where to watch A Quiet Place page holds the full table by country.
