A Quiet Place: Day One director talks casting Lupita Nyong’o and Joseph Quinn as the perfect mid-apocalyptic duo

A Quiet Place: Day One director Michael Sarnoski says working with Lupita 

“I am so thrilled that she did it. I think initially, she was top of our list. We sent the script to her and I sort of assumed we would get a thanks. but no thanks. I mean, it’s Lupita Nyong’o. But she just really responded to the character and the script and just saw so much in that character and was able to bring so much out and it’s a really hard character to play,” Sarnoski tells GamesRadar+.
