Danny Boyle Not Opposed to Directing 28 Months Later
The infection will eventually spread in 28 Months Later, a sequel that’s been in the works for quite some time now. 28 Days Later director Danny Boyle recently expressed that he likely wouldn’t be returning to direct, though it’s possible he will change his mind about that. Read on!
In an interview with The Playlist, Boyle was asked about his involvement in the upcoming sequel, and when asked if he would be interested in coming back to direct, he didn’t shoot the idea down.
“I’ve got no problem [with that],” Boyle said. “It’s the usual thing: it’s not about whether people think it’s a good idea that you’re directing. It’s whether you respond to the script or not. It’s just like on [Steve Jobs]. I got the script and I went, ‘That was amazing. I hope I can add to that somehow and it be even better than just the experience of reading it.'”
Alex Garland (28 Days Later) is currently working on the sequel’s script, and Boyle confirms that original producer Andrew Macdonald is on board.
“It’s not quite ready to go, but, there’s been a bit of work done on that,” he revealed. “It’s in a process at the moment and I wouldn’t have any inhibition about being involved in it at all. It’s amazing what has happened to the zombie genre since we made [28 Days Later].”
