The sequel to 2018 horror hit "A Quiet Place" is making some significant changes, with one leading star bowing out of the project, and another coming in to take his place.

no details about the character -- or the film's overall plot -- had been revealed yet.

The good news is that it doesn't appear that there will be too much delay caused by Henry's exit, since his replacement has already been found: Oscar nominee Cillian Murphy.

Writer-director John Krasinski -- who also co-wrote and helmed the first flick -- revealed last month that production had begun on the sequel. It's unclear how much, if any, of the film will need to be reworked now that Hounsou has stepped in for Henry, though filmmakers have some wiggle room before the film's release to figure things out.

"A Quiet Place Part II" is currently slated to hit theaters on March 20, 2020.
