John Krasinski Joins Matthew Rhys in ‘Silent River,’ a New Prime Video Serial Killer Thriller

As a seasoned gamer and avid consumer of all things thrilling and suspenseful, I can’t help but feel a surge of anticipation upon hearing about Amazon Prime Video’s upcoming series, ‘Silent River.’ Having grown up on the eerie calm of small towns in video games like Silent Hill and Alan Wake, I am no stranger to the unsettling allure of seemingly peaceful communities hiding dark secrets.


Amazon’s Prime Video is set to debut the suspenseful drama ‘Silent River,’ starring John Krasinski, known for his work in ‘A Quiet Place,’ and Matthew Rhys, who gained popularity through ‘The Americans.’

Crafted by Aaron Rabin, renowned for his work on ‘Jack Ryan,’ this suspenseful drama delves deep into the unsettling peace of a seemingly idyllic town that hides a relentless murderer.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the upcoming series will feature Krasinski and Rhys portraying key characters whose lives become increasingly entwined in ways they never expected.

Vernon Sanders, the TV chief at Amazon MGM, showed enthusiasm over the prospect of carrying on their partnership with Krasinski, Allyson Seeger, and their production company Sunday Night.

He assures an engaging series that explores the enigmas and concealed aspects of rural American communities, making it impossible for viewers globally to look away.

In the narrative of ‘Silent River’, it’s uncovered that a cold-blooded killer resides within the town’s populace, exposing the sinister undertones beneath the seemingly tranquil facade of the community.

In addition to heading the cast, Krasinski will also take on the role of director for the pilot and certain episodes, signifying a reunion with former ‘Jack Ryan’ colleagues Andrew Bernstein and Aaron Rabin.

As a devoted admirer, I’m thrilled to share that the accomplished director behind FX’s ‘The Americans’ and Netflix’s ‘Ozark’, Bernstein, will not only be at the helm but also serving as an executive producer for the upcoming project.

‘Silent River’ is a project developed by Amazon MGM Studios, with Krasinski and Seeger’s Sunday Night maintaining an ongoing first-look agreement. Krasinski, Seeger, and Alexa Ginsburg will serve as executive producers, ensuring a suspenseful and captivating storyline.

At present, Matthew Rhys is engaged in significant productions such as Netflix’s ‘The Beast In Me’ and a movie directed by Jason Reitman called ‘Saturday Night’. Simultaneously, Krasinski has been occupied with recent endeavors like ‘IF’, produced by Paramount. This follows his successful run with the ‘A Quiet Place’ series.

In this upcoming series, we delve deep beneath the calm facade of a peaceful town, uncovering a realm shrouded in mystery, intrigue, and concealed secrets. Stay tuned on Prime Video for the debut of ‘Silent River,’ where the hidden truths about small-town America are brought to the surface.
