Short description

Following the events at home, the Abbott family now face the terrors of the outside world. Forced to venture into the unknown, they realize that the creatures that hunt by sound are not the only threats that lurk beyond the sand path.

What's left behind the scenes

  • According to John Krasinski, he initially didn't want to work on a sequel, but the producers persuaded him to share ideas for a continuation with the studio. Krasinski did so, and three weeks later he was asked to write the script, with assurances that he would not direct. Eventually, Krasinski stated that he agreed to direct the project.
  • Emily Blunt admitted that she initially didn't plan to participate in the project, believing it was unlikely to live up to the level of the first 2018 film. However, she agreed to join the cast when John Krasinski told her about the bus scene. According to the actress, the first take of this scene was used in the film because the stunt frightened her greatly – the bus was rushing towards her at a speed of 64 kilometers per hour.
  • Brian Tyree Henry was supposed to star in the film, but turned down the role due to commitments to other projects. Djimon Hounsou replaced him once filming had already begun.
  • The screenwriters of the first film, Scott Beck and Brian Woods, declined to work on the sequel to focus on several new projects.
  • When John Krasinski agreed to work on the sequel, he wrote the first draft of the script in three and a half weeks.
  • The film was shot in 47 days. Filming took place from June to September 2019.
  • The film premiered in New York on March 8, 2020. The worldwide release was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • Development of the sequel began immediately after the opening weekend of the first film.
  • To continuously play the song “Beyond the Sea” in the radio station, a Technics SP-10 MKII vinyl record player is used, which does not have an auto-repeat function.
  • According to John Krasinski, he was initially reluctant to work on a sequel, but the producers persuaded him to share his ideas for a continuation with the studio. Krasinski did so, and three weeks later, he was asked to write the screenplay and was assured that he would not be the director. Ultimately, Krasinski announced that he agreed to serve as the director for the project.
  • Emily Blunt admitted that she initially didn't plan to take part in this project, believing it was unlikely to live up to the level of the first 2018 film. Regardless, she agreed to join the cast after John Krasinski told her about the bus scene. According to the actress, the first take of this scene was used in the film because the stunt terrified her—the bus hurtles straight toward the actress at a speed of 64 kilometers per hour.
