Cillian Murphy Didn’t Know ’28 Days Later’ Was a Zombie Movie, Says ‘I’m Available’ for Sequel
Cillian Murphy discussed '28 Days Later' at a taping of SAG-AFTRA Foundation’s Conversations program.
That includes working with director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland on the film, in which he plays a man who wakes from a coma 28 days after a rage-inducing virus has caused society to break down. “I wasn’t too aware we were making a zombie movie, to be honest with you,” Murphy noted, adding he hadn’t seen any of George A. Romero’s “Night of the Living Dead” series. Asked if the then-newcomer was nervous to headline a film with established actors like fellow Irishman Brendan Gleeson, Murphy noted that he was grateful they had already worked together.
