One of the most surprising franchises of recent years, A Quiet Place: Day One brings the franchise back to theaters. The third film in a decade, starring John Krasinski, Emily Blunt, and now Lupita N’yongo, has proven that it can endure.

Still, their similarity speaks to Hollywood’s never-ending drive to release films with similar themes and ideas simultaneously.
