Writer Alex Garland spoke to io9 about the zombie sequel while promoting the Kirsten Dunst-starring Civil War, in theaters Friday.
One of the most surprising, exciting pieces of movie news so far this year is that writer Alex Garland and director Danny Boyle are going back to the world of 28 Days Later . Over two decades since the groundbreaking original zombie film and 17 years since its follow-up, the pair are getting ready to make 28 Years Later. Speaking to Garland on the occasion of his latest film, Civil War , io9 asked him why now was the right time to go back to the franchise that launched his career.
’ For some reason, that passage of time unlocked a particular concept in my head that the film then goes with, and so, suddenly it made sense. I said, ‘Okay, I think I’ve got an idea.’ And I wrote it as a script, and showed it to Danny and Andrew and Peter who are the producers, and they said, ‘Yeah, okay, let’s do it.’” Plus, Garland confirmed that the overall idea is for the series to be a trilogy, if audiences turn up for it.
