Boyle confirmed the project while speaking to The Independent.. Even better, he’s teaming up once again with screenwriter Alex Garland – who penned the original movie. Rumors have it that this sequel would take place some 28 months after the events of the original. Garland had discussed the idea of a sequel to IGN in late 2015: “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. It’s more likely to be 28 Months than 28 Years. 28 Years gives you one more place to go. 28 Decades is probably taking the piss.” “28 Days Later” is one of two seminal Danny Boyle films, the other being “Trainspotting.” Of course, the 62-year-old filmmaker has made other noteworthy films in his career such as “Slumdog Millionaire,” “Shallow Grave,” “127 Hours” and the highly underrated “Trance.” I’m planning on catching his latest tomorrow, the Beatles-inspired “Yesterday.” Contribute Hire me
