28 YEARS LATER Adds Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, and Ralph Fiennes to Cast
Danny Boyle and Alex Garland’s 28 Years Later has added Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes to its cast.
This is an exciting cast of actors for a project like this, the story of which will be told over the course of three films, all of which Garland is writing.
We don’t have any plot details to share, but Garland previously offered some insight on the theme of the film. He shared: “It’s to do with the passage of time, and thinking about what effect the passage of time would have.”
He added: “Is it what you would traditionally call a post-apocalyptic state? Or has something else begun to manifest? Time is really at the core of the engine of the film.”
When previously teasing the third movie, Garland said: "I have got a really cool idea for it, but it's a much bigger movie, and one of the things about 28 Days Later is that it was small and punk and this idea is less small and punk.”
Boyle is set to direct the first film in the trilogy and The Marvels director Nia DaCosta is in talks to helm the second one.
This is going to be a really interest project. Boyle and Garland have been talking about doing this for years, and I’m excited to see what their plans are!
