Filming has already wrapped on Danny Boyle’s 28 Years Later, the long-awaited sequel to 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later that intends to launch a brand new trilogy. In fact, Ralph Fiennes spills the beans in a chat with IndieWire that the first TWO movies have been shot!
Fiennes also served up some plot details for 28 Years Later that were previously under wraps.
He tells the outlet, “Britain is 28 years into this terrible plague of infected people who are violent, rabid humans with a few pockets of uninfected communities. And it centers on a young boy who wants to find a doctor to help his dying mother. He leads his mother through this beautiful northern English terrain. But of course, around them hiding in forests and hills and woods are the infected. But he finds a doctor who is a man we might think is going to be weird and odd, but actually is a force for good.”
That doctor, you might have guessed, is played by Ralph Fiennes.
Danny Boyle and Alex Garland are reteaming for the 28 Years Later trilogy, with Garland writing the first movie and Boyle back in the director’s chair for at least the saga’s first movie.
28 Years Later arrives in theaters on June 20, 2025 from Sony.
The horror movie’s cast includes Jack O’Connell (Amy Winehouse: Back To Black), Jodie Comer (Alone in the Dark, “Killing Eve”), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Kraven the Hunter), Erin Kellyman (The Green Knight, “Willow”) and Ralph Fiennes (The Menu).
Cillian Murphy is executive producing and reportedly returning to star.
Nia DaCosta (Candyman, The Marvels) will direct the second installment in the trilogy.
The original movie in 2002 starred Cillian Murphy and was written by Alex Garland and directed by Danny Boyle. In the smash hit horror film, “Four weeks after a mysterious, incurable virus spreads throughout the UK, a handful of survivors try to find sanctuary.
