The A Quiet Place writers are joining forces with Sam Raimi? Yes, please!

Are you ready for the writers of A Quiet Place to take things to the next level? I mean, I guess putting out one of the most talked-about horror-thrillers in recent years isn’t a bad way to go. But, as it was for director John Krasinski, it was the coming-out party for them in a big way. If the past was any indication, they would be courted all around and handed amazing opportunities going forward. And indeed they have so far.

A Quiet Place writers Scott Beck and Bryan Woods have since gone on to direct their own feature Haunt. They have also directed an episode of the Quibi show 50 States of Fright. Clearly, they are amazing fans of the horror genre and are looking to up their game. With that in mind, what better thing to do than work with the horror maestro himself, Sam Raimi?

Variety is reporting that the duo is set to write, direct, and produce their own new feature with Sam Raimi and Zainab Azizi producing.

“Raimi Productions is proud to be teaming up with Scott Beck and Bryan Woods,” said Raimi in a statement. “They have exceeded all expectations in my experience with them at Quibi and we have the utmost confidence in their brilliant story. I am honored to once again be joining forces with our partners at Sony Pictures. We have a wild and thrilling blockbuster that we can’t wait to share with the world.”

“After A Quiet Place we knew we had a responsibility to reinvest back into the ecosystem of original ideas,” said Beck and Woods. “We are so proud to have partnered with a studio that believes in a theatrical landscape that looks for launching new stories. Our producing team at Raimi Productions helped foster our vision for this film as directors before we introduced the spec script to the town. Sam Raimi is not only one of our heroes, but one of the only filmmakers to successfully master both independent film and the studio blockbuster. We can’t imagine a more perfect mentor to help us transition into big studio filmmaking.”

This is certainly an amazing stepping stone for the A Quiet Place writers, and I can only imagine how exciting it’s going to be for them to work alongside the horror legend. Sadly, there are no details surrounding the film itself, but given how early we are in the stages, it makes sense.
