Actor Joseph Quinn has had quite the successful career after his breakout role as the rebellious and enigmatic Edward "Eddie" Munson in ‘Stranger Things 4’ (2022).
The actor has been keeping busy, as his latest film, ‘A Quiet Place: Day One’ (a franchise prequel) had its New York City premiere on Wednesday, June 26 at AMC Lincoln Square. He also recently wrapped production on Alex Garland’s ‘Warfare,’ and is no stranger to filming intense sequences — something that helped him on ‘A Quiet Place: Day One.’
“Every project provides its own challenges and its own obstacles that need to be overcome,” said Quinn to IndieWire. “This one had a very specific set of things that needed be attacked and negotiated and money, the fact that we can’t talk. So that was a very interesting thing to do, but we weren’t doing it alone. It was a very thrilling and exciting prospect.”
Joseph Quinn will continue his hectic schedule which includes playing the Human Torch in Marvel’s 1960s period-piece ‘The Fantastic Four’ in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Later this year, the actor will star alongside lead Paul Mescal, Denzel Washington, and Pedro Pascal in Ridley Scott’s untitled ‘Gladiator’ sequel.
On working with iconic Blade Runner and Gladiator director Ridley Scott, Quinn said the experience was “life affirming, amazing, and beyond anything I could’ve imagined.”
‘Gladiator II’ is expected to land in theatres this November.
