There’s something so charming about seeing an actor in a movie before they made it big. Before Margot Robbie was Barbie, she was girl-next-door Donna Freedman on the Australian soap opera Neighbours. Before Benedict Cumberbatch was Sherlock or Doctor Strange, he was the voice of Martin Crieff in the BBC radio series Cabin Pressure. And before Cillian Murphy was Tommy Shelby or J. Robert Oppenheimer, he was Jim, a survivor of a zombie apocalypse in 28 Days Later and its sequel 28 Weeks Later.
Now, he’s back as an executive producer for the franchise’s third movie, 28 Years Later, but it looks like he won’t venture in front of the camera at all. At least, not in this movie.
