Jodie Comer is rumored to star in ’28 Years Later’ alongside Cillian Murphy, as confirmed by Daniel Richtman on Patreon. The film, directed by Danny Boyle and co-written with Alex Garland, is set to begin filming in May 2024.
The budget is around $60 million, and there will also be Part 2, written by Garland. Boyle will direct only the first project. Murphy will also serve as an executive producer. The pair, along with original producer Andrew Macdonald and Peter Rice, the former head of Fox Searchlight Pictures, will also produce. Bernie Bellew is also producing.
Comer is best known for her role in the TV hit ‘Killing Eve’. She has recently begun to take on some movie roles and will next be seen in Jeff Nichols’ ‘The Bikeriders’. She also stole the show in Ridley Scott’s ‘The Last Duel’.
The film is produced by Sony Pictures Releasing, DNA Films, and Decibel Films.
’28 Days Later’ was released in 2002, directed by Boyle. It follows a post-apocalyptic London where a viral outbreak turns people into rage-filled zombies. The story centers on survivor Jim (Murphy), as he navigates the desolate cityscape with fellow survivors.
The sequel, ’28 Weeks Later,’ released in 2007 and directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, continues the saga six months after the first film. It depicts efforts to rebuild London under US military supervision, which are disrupted by a new outbreak. The sequel features intense action sequences.
The release date for ’28 Years Later’ has not yet been announced. Also, more cast members will be added soon after production begins.
’28 Days Later’ is available on Prime Video.
