When me Spoke with filmmaker Danny Boyle earlier this month After seeing only the first 28 minutes of his upcoming “28 years later”, the filmmaker chomped a little to share more, not just about this filmBut what will come in nia dacostas ”28 years later: bid temple“(In theaters on January 16, 2026) and a planned fourth film in addition to it (and even hoping for a fifth).
After waiting year for the third film Getting to effect has Boyle and the screenwriter Alex Garland clearly plenty to share in the upcoming films. Boyle said about Garland, “He wrote the first script and the second script very close to each other. And we knew we had to shoot them back-to-back for financial reasons and actors reasons and all such things that were a bit sensible to do it back-to-back.”
On the question of how obvious installation for the ‘bone temple’ will be At the end of “28 years later,” Boyle said: “There is an installation that is important. What can I say? I can’t say anything. It’s not follow -up. It’s not like, oh, the story is not clear. The movie (’28 years later ‘) is finished, and then you get this little tail shown, oh, God. Anyway, we see what people think it is different.”
After watching the whole movie I agree … and can’t wait to watch Dacosta’s movie.
(Once more: the following article contains spoilers for “28 years later”, found in theaters now.)
Boyle’s film picks up – of course – 28 years after the events in the first film. Britain has been transformed into a massive quarantine zone, all except abandoned by the rest of the world, leaving someone left alive to take care of themselves. On a tidal water island just off the coast, a scary group has survived, including the small family Jamie (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), Isla (Jodie Comer) and their son Spike (Alfie Williams).
When the film opens, Jamie is about to take 12-year-old Spike to the mainland for both his first trip there and (hopefully) his first death of an infected one. Unfortunately, their visit draws the Zombie Horse’s IRE, especially a massive “alpha” that follows the couple back to their relatively safe homes.
But while Jamie can hold off the zombies (and kill his leader), the couple’s visit also Light something in Spike: The possibility of a human doctor nearby who, he hopes, may be able to cure Isla of what is harmful to her (headache, nasal bleeding, memory loss and terrible pain). Spike does not meet the doctor, Dr. Ian Kelson (Ralph Fiennes) during the first visit, only spies his home, through a massive fire that seems to have burned for several years. What Kelson is burning is not a surprise: it is similar, both human and infected.

After Spike and Jamie return to their home, Spike Engineers have an escape and get rid of a puzzled Isla, hike over dangerous countries, encounter friends and enemies, and generally do so most in the hope that he can save his beloved mother. Parties Hands along the way, including the couple who run into a pregnant infected woman, who gives birth (GISP?) A completely healthy and normal child and eventually he finds Kelson. While Jamie has tried to transfer Kelson as a certain madman, both Spike and Isla are struck by the man, who has transformed the work of his life into honoring the dead through the combustion of their residues, which he then modes to dizzy, sweeping Memento Mori.
It’s the bone temple. It is not a scary place, which Jamie seems to think it is, it is one of deep feeling and compassion for all people, infected or not.
And no, the bone temple itself is no big secret, even before the audience enters “28 years later.” “(There is a place movement in the film), it’s a geographical … You’ve seen from the trailer What the bone temple is, and they put it on the poster now. But what the bone temple is very important for the film, really. “
While Kelson can diagnose Isla, he cannot cure her either. The choice is made with the shortest word and look: Kelson Mercy-Kills Isla and presents his skull to be nailed to place at the very best place in the temple. But when Spike returns to his island -home in the last moments of the film, he does it only a very short period, just long enough to leave the child (which he has of course named Isla) safely on its beaches, along with a note to his father who explains that he is safe but goes back to the world (for now) to find his way. And while he promises that he will come back when he is “ready”, an absolutely hysterical and sad Jamie seems to be intended to follow his son and bring him home.
At the same time, the young nail is back on the mainland and rough it but clearly survives. Until a package infected comes over him and chases him down on a winding country road. When Spike gets rid of some excellent death shoots, he suddenly realizes that he is not alone. In front, a striking man seems: Jack O’Connell, sporty shiny jewelry, a shocking blonde coif and a disarming pure purple velvet track. As Boyle promised in our interview, the actor can show up late in the film, but he leaves a gigantic impression, and he will be “a huge character” in “Bent temple.”

As the smirking O’Connell (he has been invoiced as “Sir Jimmy Crystal”, one of many Characters whose name includes a derivative by Cillian Murphy’s original film leader, Jim) congratulates a shocked nail on his shooting ability, the rest of his gang operates, all similarly equipped. They offer to help, and not only take down the infected person who has come after nail seems absolutely enjoy Killing, maiming, the toss. For these guys it all looks … fun?
And although this would be enough for an introduction, then zooming Boyle into a certain jewelry around O’Connell’s neck: a shiny gold cross, hung up and down. It turns out that this is not the first time we met Jimmy. Boyle’s Film actually opens during the first outbreak, after a horrified family in the Scottish Highlands who are all (including many women and children) surpassed by the early zombie hordes. The one who gets away? Young Jimmy, who sees the whole family slaughtered, just to run to their father’s church for safety, where his preacher father embraces the infected and considers them Saved.
Of course, it is not, and Jimmy hides under the church’s floor records when his father is consumed and infected. What has become of that child during the 28 years that have passed? That is what we will see in “The Bone Temple”, which promises not only to bring Sir Jimmy Crystal in the foreground, but to see him up at a furious Jamie.
When it came to considering these three films of a certain paragraph, Boyle pointed to Dacosta, which seems to have some incredible insights into this trilogy. “I remember asking nia (about this new trilogy), ‘what do you think it is If? “, Boyle called.” It will not necessarily be about this as movies change, but I said, “What do you think it is about?” And she said: ‘Well, I think the first is about the nature of the family. The second about the nature of evil. And the third is about redemption. ‘
A Sony production, “28 years later” is in theaters now.
