Sony didn’t waste any time after purchasing the rights to 28 Days Later. The acquisition was announced alongside plans for a new trilogy, but these plans were a bit open-ended. All we knew about for sure were Danny Boyle’s 28 Years Later and Nia DaCosta’s 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, which were filmed back-to-back and slated for release in 2025 and 2026.
The plan was to revive interest in a zombified Britain and attract an audience for a third movie. Now, it looks like that scheme is coming together, and it involves the return of a character fans have been clamoring to see.
