John Krasinski on his secret role as the monster in A Quiet Place

October 18, 2018 by Samuel Brace

John Krasinski also played the part of the monster in A Quiet Place.

The former Office star John Krasinski was a busy man on this year’s hit horror film A Quiet Place, not only directing the movie but starring in it too.

But this wasn’t his only involvement on set as the actor has now revealed on Jimmy Kimmel Live that he was also the actor behind the film’s terrifying monster, given its full due in that tense final scene:

“Nobody knows it because I’ve kept it [a secret]. This is gonna end my career. Yeah, the commitment level was very high. The amazing people at ILM, said, ya know, ‘So how does the creature move?’ So I said, ‘Well, this is how I think he’s gonna crawl.’ And they just said, ‘Well, why don’t you throw on the suit?’ And I was like, ‘Totally!”

Krasinski’s segment on Kimmel also included photographic evidence of the actor playing the part, just in case the audience didn’t believe it.

In the modern horror thriller A QUIET PLACE, 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.

A Quiet Place sees John Krasinski directing and starring alongside Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds and Noah Jupe.
