Director Danny Boyle says we can expect something a bit different from 28 Years Later, the direct sequel to his hit 2002 genre-changing zombie horror 28 Days Later.
“In fact, Alex [Garland] wrote one script at one point, but they were kind of what you'd expect," Boyle told IGN. "And by that I mean things that you expect from a sequel, like the virus is weaponized by a military or a government or a shady [organization]... That kind of thing. And neither of us were very taken by it. But then we began to discuss this idea of doing a much bigger project, which was a series of films that sort of did the opposite of spreading it to Europe and the world."
