The series that redefined zombie films and breathed new life into the genre at the start of the 21st century is back! 28 Years Later, the highly anticipated new installment in the legendary saga kicked off by Danny Boyle’s 2002 film 28 Days Later, is gearing up for its theatrical release.
With Danny Boyle returning to the director’s chair, this film, while the third in the series, marks the beginning of an entirely new trilogy! That means 28 Years Later is just the start of what’s to come. Starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, and Alfie Williams, the film is already generating excitement among fans. Notably, its shift away from focusing on Cillian Murphy’s character, Jim, is expected to bring a fresh perspective to the series.
Why should you see it? The film doesn’t just revive the zombie theme—it’s said to preserve the series’ signature tension and atmosphere. For fans of the original’s unsettling, visceral blend of fear, 28 Years Later promises an unmissable experience. Knowing it’s the start of a new trilogy adds a layer of intrigue, making certain scenes feel even more profound and impactful. Already earning “very good” reviews from critics, the film is poised to be one of the year’s most ambitious horror and thriller offerings.
Don’t miss out! 28 Years Later hits theaters on June 20, 2025, with the next chapter in the trilogy, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, set for release on January 16, 2026. See you at the cinema!
