In addition to several surprise guests who have been instrumental in her life and career making an appearance, attendees also enjoyed the debut of exclusive clips from Paramount Pictures’ A Quiet Place: Day One, which is only in theaters, Dolby Cinema and IMAX on June 28.
The film’s synopsis is simple:
Experience the day the world went quiet.
This prequel to 2018’s John Krasinski- and Emily Blunt-led A Quiet Place chronicles when the mysterious, deadly creatures that hunt by sound first wrecked havoc on Earth. A Quiet Place: Day One also stars Joseph Quinn (Stranger Things 2022), Alex Wolff (Hereditary 2018) and Djimon Hounsou (Blood Diamond 2006).
