Danny Boyle to Direct 28 Months Later?
With the release of 28 Weeks Later still a month off, we’ve already started to hear about the possibility of a second sequel. While doing press for his upcoming movie Sunshine, Danny Boyle has reportedly been letting it slip that there are tentative plans for another installment in the zombie franchise. I guess as long as the virus can survive in one person (and as long as the movies continue to make money), there’s always that possibility it could mutate and spread somewhere else, right?
Now the interesting thing is that according to a scooper at Ain’t It Cool News, Boyle did some second unit directing on 28 Weeks Later, and had so much fun that he’s “seriously considering” returning to do the next one himself again. Wow, that’s pretty cool. Not only does it get me excited about the possibility of a third movie, but it kind of makes me more interested in seeing the second one now as well. There’s no word on an official title for the potential follow-up, but the logical choice that everyone has adopted is 28 Months Later. The thing is, that’s over 2 years. Seems like a long time for a virus that can infect someone in seconds!

will there be a 28 months later?
Posted by john on June 1st, 2008there better be a 28 months later. 2 good movies and then no third that woulb be a shame. plus you never know you make a thrid and it might beat the resident evil movies
Posted by zak schertzing on June 5th, 2008i think 28 months later is still acceptable.. i mean.. after 28 months, almost all of human population has been infected.. only a handful of survivors are left… then comes….. I AM LEGEND.. LOL… both films seems connected to me. XD
Posted by enshong on June 29th, 200828 days later was a fantastic film and if you think about it could probably happen and 28 weeks later was a good film but i think was missing a few things because what actually happened wouldnt have happened but that is what made the film and it wud be disspaointing to not see a 28 months later to see what actually happened when the infected got in to europe
Posted by jeff on July 7th, 2008there better bea 28 months.
Posted by eamonn on August 28th, 2008please please please make a third film, the first two are excellent films, a third and final film to see the wiping out extinction of mankind would be amazing.
Posted by Mark on November 14th, 2008please please make a third film 28 months, It wouldn`t be fair to leave us fans hanging like that. It be great to bring back some of the characters from previous films too. catch up on their story lines. Ofcourse there could also be a 28 Years Later after that, but no more I think. WAY TO ADDICTIVE,GREAT FILMS.
Posted by karenna on December 5th, 2008PS, just a thought but maybe santuary could be on a small island, Isle of Wight, scilly isles,or channel islands
안녕하세요. 저는 한국에 사는데요. 28개월후 미국에는 정말로 벌써 개봉했나요? 아시는 분은 메일로 보내주세요.
Posted by 곽근형 on December 20th, 2008I think it’s neccessary for a third film, but I think they should do something the fans wouldnt expect with the film e.g. the infected take mainland Europe/Asia (or even the world depending on how far they want to go) and totally mess up by causing nuclear power plants to go into meltdown and kill off them all (possibly the only survivors are high ranking officials in powerful countries who after 28 months later come out of there hiding and see the full extent of the world)
Posted by Tom/TJ on January 4th, 2009Dragging on a bit there, but as long as it doesn’t go off the first two films then it should be good…
I proper loved 28 day later and 28 weeks later it was fantasic but that would be so scary if that happened and there better be a 28 months later showing the infection spreading over Europe because we have seen it in Britian but i think that would be the last one because having a 28 years later is weid.
Posted by Leslie White,Liverpool on February 21st, 2009Never mind 28 week’s later and 28 day’s later has any one saw my bloody valatine on 3D IT’S THE BEST.They should make all film’s in 3D

Posted by Hello on April 6th, 2009It would be great, i would like to watch 28 Months Later and i think, there will be 28 Months Later, becasue, the end of 28 Weeks Later was open. U know, virus in Paris, and in the whole Europe
Posted by RIPP3R on April 6th, 2009i would love there to be a third movie not just to watch but for the whole world to see and love
Posted by j.j. on May 3rd, 2009if there was a third i think it would turn out to be one of the best ever made. me and all my mates would go and love it no matter how good or bad it will be because these types of movies are allways good to watch because this could happen and its the realistic of these type of movies hat attracts fans like us
please please make a 28 months later……
For all you hungry zombiemovie fans, see Dead-set, that shud satisfy ur Z-movie hunger
Posted by Das modal finland on May 20th, 200928 days is quality so is 28 weeks … i just dont want it to get like resident evil films which are shit … the games own the films … end of the day 28 months later wouldn’t be too bad
another zombie film you guys need to watch : Dead Snow
Posted by barthez on May 31st, 200928 days later and 28 weeks later are both awesome films. I think it would be fantastic if they were to create a 28 months later, they also left the end of the 2nd film (28 weeks later) way open for a sequel.
Posted by Vincent Santoro on June 10th, 2009they better make da 28 months later movie aint it. Cause if dey dont i will be well pissed of aint it. Zombie’s r fun to watch, they so creepy and mad so me like dat. so come on Danny, make da movie that we all want to see aint it or i will be well pissed of aint with u Danny man.
Posted by zombie on June 20th, 2009Your bonkers if you dont make a third movie. The first was great, the second (which is usually a disapointment) was just as good if not better. The third should and could be the same. Just dont call it 28 Months Later >.< Best maybe to call it 28 hours later
Waiting to watch 
Posted by Crofty on July 20th, 2009To zombie.. Your a fucking retard, learn english grammar and spelling. Zombies are smarter than you.
To Crofty.. Thats a great idea.. I was thinking about 28 hours later and what should happen if there was one XD
Posted by IHteRtrds on August 11th, 2009They gotta make a third one cause how are we going to know what happened after the end of “28 weeks later”? did the virus spread through out Europe?, Is the virus gonna be stopped? There are so much things we do not know about it, but i reckon this 3rd movie is gonna be the best one because they are doing it all over europe which means MUCH MORE INFECTED =)
Posted by Pat on October 2nd, 2009yeh Guys! Seriously, a third film is needed, the end of the 2nd, leaves the door open for a third! stop making us wait! O_o
