28 Years Later: Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Ralph Fiennes cast in sequel


The new film marks the reunion of director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland, who created 2002’s 28 Days Later starring Oscar winner Cillian Murphy

Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Ralph Fiennes will star in 28 Years Later, Danny Boyle’s upcoming sequel to the classic zombie horror 28 Days Later. Earlier this month, Deadline reported that Candyman director Nia DiCosta was in talks to helm the second instalment, which is planned to shoot back-to-back with the first film. Plot details for the sequels remain vague, though they boast a $75m budget for each film and now hefty star power – a far cry from 28 Days Later, which was shot on $8m and featured a relatively unknown Cillian Murphy in a breakout role.
