A Quiet Place sequel & Top Gun 2 set for 2020 release

Paramount has announced that the sequel to the smash horror hit A Quiet Place and the highly anticipated Top Gun 2 have both been set for release in 2020. The A Quiet Place sequel will premiere on May 15, 2020, while Top Gun 2’s original release date of July 12, 2019, has been pushed back to June 26, 2020,

A Quiet Place was directed by John Krasinski, who starred opposite his real-life wife Emily Blunt. Noah Jupe (Suburbicon, Wonder) and Millicent Simmonds (Wonderstruck) round out the cast.

In the modern horror thriller, a family of four must navigate their lives in silence after mysterious creatures that hunt by sound threaten their survival. If they hear you, they hunt you. The film has minimal dialogue, because silence is survival. Since opening in theaters on April 6, it has grossed over $213 million worldwide on a $17 million dollar budget.

Top Gun: Maverick is the sequel to the 1986 hit, with original cast members Tom Cruise and Val Kilmer reprising their roles alongside Glen Powell (Hidden Figures), Jennifer Connelly (A Beautiful Mind), Miles Teller (Whiplash), Jon Hamm (Mad Men), Ed Harris (Westworld), Lewis Pullman (Bad Times at the El Royale), Thomasin McKenzie (Jojo Rabbit), Charles Parnell (A Million Little Pieces), Jay Ellis (Insecure), Bashir Salahuddin (GLOW), Danny Ramirez (Assassination Nation), and Monica Barbaro (The Good Cop).

Joseph Kosinski, who previously directed Cruise in Oblivion, will helm the sequel, with Peter Craig, Justin Marks and Eric Warren Singer penning the script. Although the title Top Gun: Maverick floated around briefly, the film is currently without an official title.

A follow-up to Tony Scott’s 1986 hit has been in the works for quite some time, with Tom Cruise interested in reprising his role as United States Naval Aviator Lieutenant Pete “Maverick” Mitchell. Producer Jerry Bruckheimer previously outlined that the film will deal with the rise of unmanned drones and pilots becoming a thing of the past.
