So, obviously, evidence of Bird Box’s direct link to A Quiet Place cannot be proven, although the timing of both movies is interesting. The film rights to the book were originally optioned by Universal Studios in 2013, a year before the book’s release and two years before John Krasinski was sent the first draft of the script for A Quiet Place. Bird Box is actually an adaptation of a novel by Josh Malerman, which was published in 2014. Seems fair to call out Netflix for wanting to cash in on the commercial and critical success of A Quiet Place by developing its own survival-by-sensory-deprivation thriller, right? If you have really bought into that assumption, now might be a good time to take off your blindfold.
