Emily Blunt and John Krasinski weren't initially convinced that a sequel to A Quiet Place would be a good idea.

Emily Blunt and John Krasinski's return to A Quiet Place Part II didn't come without a few reservations from the husband and wife team. Blunt, 37, and her husband, Krasinski, 40, weren't inclined to do a sequel to their hit 2018 film, she said that at the premiere of the film.

`We were both really reluctant and unnerved at the idea of trying to do another one,` Blunt told the outlet. `A lot of people came into the studio and tried to pitch ideas and we were both like, 'We're not going to do it.'`

It was the story that eventually changed their minds with Krasinski telling Variety, `I had this small idea, which was to make Millie [Simmonds] the lead of the movie.`
