‘A Quiet Place: Day One’: Alex Wolff & Djimon Hounsou Opt For Different Animal Companions During A Hostile Alien Invasion

When the first trailer for A Quiet Place: Day One arrived, it was the prequel film in the beloved horror/sci-fi franchise starring Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn. While the two actors command any scene they are in, Nyong’o’s animal co-star, Frodo, the cat, grabs all the attention. So, of course, we had to ask the film’s other stars, Djimon Hounsou and Alex Wolff, if they would have animal companions during an alien invasion.

The Film Takes Us To Day One of The Alien Invasion

Director Micahel Sarnoski’s A Quiet Place: Day One brings us back into the world writer/director and star John Krasinski introduced us to in 2018’s groundbreaking entry, A Quiet Place.

The tension of trying to stay quiet and survive a hostile invasion of aliens who can literally hear a pin drop is taken to another level as the suspense and horror are taken from the smaller locations from the previous two films and shift to one of the loudest cities in the world, New York.

A Quiet Place: Day One follows Nyong’o’s character, Samira, a terminally ill woman who must survive the first day of the massive alien invasion along with her support cat, Frodo, as the sound-sensitive aliens turn the massive city into a hunting ground, picking off anyone who dares make a sound.

Samira encounters another survivor, Eric (Joseph Quinn), who also suffers from trauma, and the two decide to link up to survive this uncharted yet terrifying extraterrestrial experience.

She also has Frodo whom she goes to great lengths to keep safe, even though he makes surviving an alien invasion even more difficult for them.

Before encountering Eric, Samira and Frodo’s reluctant trip into the city happens after her care worker Rebuen (Alex Wolff) bribes her with some good old NYC pizza if she goes see a play with the group.

During her trip to the theater, she encounters Henri (Djimon Hounsou) and his family. Fans of the franchise will be happy to see the character’s return and how he survived day one of the invasion.

There Won’t Be A Cat In Djimon Hounsou & Alex Wolff’s Quiet Place Movie

Cassius Life’s Bernard “Beanz” Smalls spoke with Hounsou and Wolff about the film’s big star, Frodo the cat, and whether or not they would have an animal companion during an alien invasion.

Wolff made an even more interesting pitch for what his companion animal would be: an alligator.

Djimon Hounsou Speaks On The Fate of His Son In A Possible Third Quiet Place Film

We also had to ask Hounsou about the fate of another character, his son. In A Quiet Place: Part II, we first meet Henri; he is with a group of survivors living normally on an island because the aliens can’t swim.

…we are not contemplating my family being stranded anywhere in part three.

Unfortunately, one alien crosses the water on a boat that drifts to the island and goes wild on the survivors. Henri puts his son in a closet and teams up with Emmett (Cillian Murphy) and Regan (Millicent Simmonds) to utilize a radio tower to broadcast a sound that exposes a weakness in the damn near invulnerable alien invaders.

Unfortunately, in Part II, Henri went out like a true G, but we were left wondering about his son’s fate. We asked Housou what he thought his son would be doing in a potential third film.
