Now that he’s made the transition from “the guy who played Jim on The Office” to “filmmaker behind a hit horror surprise,” there’s an important lesson that John Krasinski needs to learn: If you’re a white man who has done one successful thing in Hollywood, you have to keep doing that thing over and over again until you either die or fail a dozen times. A Quiet Place was huge, but despite that, he seemed to be under the impression last year that there was a chance Hollywood would allow him to make one popular movie and then stop without running the idea into the ground by making a bunch of sequels. Then, once it became clear that a sequel was an inevitability, he apparently thought that Paramount Pictures would just let him move on without making the sequel himself. Krasinski knows Michael Bay, does he think Bay actually wanted to make all of those Transformers sequels and not that the studio was forcing him?
