21 Years Later, the Most Influential Apocalypse Franchise of the Century Is Switching Genres

— 20th Century Studios

After 14 years, director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland are finally reuniting for a new project. Their latest collaboration won’t end with just one film, either, as the duo are returning to the world of 28 Days Later with a trilogy of follow-ups that have found a home at Sony Pictures. The first sequel, appropriately titled 28 Years Later, is already taking shape. Not much is known about it yet, but 28 Days star Cillian Murphy is executive producing and potentially starring, which implies it will be a relatively straightforward follow-up to 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later.
