Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn play two strangers who team up to survive the alien apocalypse in New York City.
After two hit movies in the main A Quiet Place franchise, we’re now being treated to a fresh perspective on the alien invasion with the spin-off A Quiet Place: Day One.
The prequel takes us right back to the start of the apocalypse, with the emergence of the blind aliens who hunt humans using their hypersensitive hearing.
Set in New York City, the story follows Sam (Lupita Nyong’o), a cancer sufferer who is there on a day trip with her hospice.
After the aliens crash down and start wiping out the human race, she tries to reach her old childhood neighbourhood of Harlem without making any noise.
This journey is challenging because she is not alone – she is accompanied by her support cat Frodo and British law school student Eric (Joseph Quinn), a stranger who tags along for company.
Day One, written and directed by Michael Sarnoski instead of John Krasinski, offers up a fresh perspective on the apocalypse.
