The first trailer for “A Quiet Place,” the second movie starring Utah teen actor Millicent Simmonds, was released online Thursday — and it looks really scary.

Simmonds, the 14-year-old Bountiful girl who made an impressive debut in Todd Haynes’ “Wonderstruck,” co-stars with Emily Blunt and John Krasinski (who also directed) in this horror thriller, which will be released in theaters on April 6.

The movie centers on a family living in an isolated farmhouse who strive to remain absolutely quiet because of an unknown menace outside.

Simmonds, who is deaf, told The Salt Lake Tribune in a recent interview, “It’s scarier to watch a scary movie than be in one. But maybe I’ll be scared when I watch it.”
