Krasinski spent his first check from The Office directly on obtaining the rights to David Foster Wallace’s short-story collection Brief Interviews With Hideous Men.
But, The Office didn’t just launch his acting career, it gave him the means to try his hand at directing.

“For me this whole movie becomes about community. “The second one is about that promise being broken and it's about growing up and it's about moving on and dealing with loss,” he says. Early teasers for A Quiet Place Part II show what’s remaining of the family venturing outside the relative safety of their home. At the end of A Quiet Place his character dies in sacrifice of saving his children (Krasinski jokes that if he knew there would be a sequel he wouldn’t have killed off his own character). “If the first movie is about parenthood and the promise that you make to your kids that I'll keep you safe no matter what-that's, that's inevitably a false promise,” he says. Again, my whole metaphor was solely about parenthood.”Īnd, Krasinski says that he wanted to expand on this idea in the sequel. If anything it was about, you know, going into the dark and, and taking a chance when all hope looked lost, you take, you know, you fight for what's most important to you. “It wasn't about being, you know, silent and political time that had nothing to do with that. “I never saw it that way or ever thought of it until it was presented to me in that way,” Krasinski tells me.
