'She’s brilliant' -Danny Boyle backs new 28 Years Later director

  • On January 14, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple opened in UK cinemas, the second addition to the 28 Years Later trilogy now playing in UK theatres.
  • Shot back-to-back with the previous instalment, Nia DaCosta directed from Alex Garland's script and left pieces in place to enable the third 28 Years Later film.
  • The Bone Temple sequences feature a skull-built memorial and a pyrotechnic show, culminating in Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal fatally stabbing Dr Ian Kelson, played by Ralph Fiennes, before being torn apart by Infected.
  • The discovery alters franchise stakes and sets up a third 28 Years Later film, while Dr Ian Kelson’s apparent cure raises ethical questions about slaughtering Infected.
  • Danny Boyle publicly praised DaCosta, saying `I really admire Nia, because it must have been very tough to take over something that’s not just got the 28 Years Later, but that’s 28 Days Later` and expressed pride in the British crew and UK roots.
