From what we understand, the first TWO movies in the 28 Years Later trilogy have already been filmed. Boyle directs the first installment, while Nia DaCosta (Candyman, The Marvels) directs the second. Read on for everything we know about this epic franchise experience.

Fiennes recently previewed the plot as follows: “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.”
Alex Garland (28 Days Later) wrote the screenplay for 28 Years Later. Additionally, we’ve learned, Cillian Murphy is executive producing and reportedly returning to star.
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.
