Krasinski said: "The beauty of Cillian's character is that there was so much loss in his life that he doesn't feel the need to be part of a community."
Speaking about the role to Total Film magazine Murphy said: "I was blown away by it, what I wanted was the audience to say what would I do in that situation."
Murphy, who made his name in Danny Boyle's iconic post-apocalyptic adventure 28 Days Later, told the magazine that he was "blown away" by A Quiet Place, describing it as "unbelievably original".
"I was like, 'I'm going to write an email to John Krasinski, because that was an amazing piece of work'," the Peaky Blinders star continued.
A Quiet Place II is in cinemas Wednesday 18 March.
