‘28 Years Later’ Director Danny Boyle On Return To Horror Series & Whether 007 Is In His Future – Crew Call Podcast


Deadline interview with Danny Boyle about '28 Years Later', returning to the zombie franchise and whether he'd direct a James Bond movie.

Enter the next installment of Danny Boyle ‘s 28 infected feature series, 28 Years Later, which truly elevates the undead genre to sophisticated storytelling (a helluva second act) and visual dimensions, read the Oscar winning Slumdog Millionaire director shot the movie on an iPhone 15 ProMax with a Theo Angelopoulos’ sense of natural lighting. There was always a want for both screenwriter Alex Garland and Boyle to return to the 28 films after 2009’s 28 Weeks Later(which was directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo). While talks fell apart back in the day, coming away from a global pandemic can truly inspire a director and scribe whose previous work on the subject seemed prescience for a year when 2020 was destitute and shut down.
