A possible advantage for Paramount is that the production budget for 'A Quiet Place II' was remarkably low, which could potentially offset overall future losses. The movie cost 17 million U.S. dollars to produce, roughly the same as its predecessor 'A Quiet Place' which was released in 2018 and was a major hit for the studio.
