Beck & Woods serve as Executive Producers on the film in addition to co-writing the screenplay with Krasinski.
A QUIET PLACE was named as a Top Ten Film of 2018 by the American Film Institute and the National Board of Review.

Next up for Beck & Woods is Sony Pictures’ sci-fi thriller 65 with Academy Award® nominee Adam Driver starring along with Ariana Greenblatt and Chloe Coleman.
