Danny Boyle ‘Serious’ About 28 Months Later

28months

I was wondering when we’d hear something about this.  The third in a supposed ’28’ zombie thrillers was always going to happen.  It appears to be taking its time but happening nonetheless, as far as a third movie is concerned.  Screenwriter Alex Garland says he and director Danny Boyle have been discussing it.

“We’ve got an idea. Danny [Boyle] and [producer] Andrew [Macdonald] and I have been having quite serious conversations about it so it is a possibility. It’s complicated. There’s a whole bunch of reasons why it’s complicated, which are boring so I won’t go into, but there’s a possibility.”

As for whether there’d be a fourth (you know there will be), Garland talks as if it is indeed likely:

“It’s more likely to be 28 Months than 28 Years” he revealed. “28 Years gives you one more place to go. 28 Decades is probably taking the piss.”

This brings to mind two things: First that Danny Boyle is developing a WW2 mini series, Band of Brothers style with a considerable budget, on the special forces operations that interfered with the German nuclear programme.  I hope we hear something on ‘Telemark’ soon.  Second, I hope that George Romero’s son finally gets that Living Dead prequel he’s been talking about off the ground.
