28 Years Later

8 sections

  • 28 Years Later, the 2025 film from director Danny Boyle, sends a twelve-year-old boy named Spike into a Britain that the rest of the world has sealed off. The country has been under indefinite quarantine for nearly three decades, since the Rage Virus first tore through it. Spike's mother, Isla, is ill, and getting her treatment means crossing ground that the Infected still roam. The film is horror, but it is also a coming-of-age story, written by Alex Garland and starring Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jack O'Connell, Alfie Williams and Ralph Fiennes. It is the third film in a series that began with 28 Days Later. It took far longer to reach screens than its title suggests. Why did the project sit idle for so many years? How did a film of this scale come to be shot largely on phones? And what was a quarantined Britain on screen meant to say about the real one?

  • Lindisfarne is a tidal island off the Northumberland coast, and in the film it shelters the last orderly community in Britain. Its best defence is the sea itself, because a causeway links it to the mainland and floods with every tide. Twenty-eight years after the outbreak, the Rage Virus has been wiped out across continental Europe, a victory that came after it reached Paris in a second wave. Britain was left behind, with few survivors inside it.

    Three of those survivors anchor the story. Jamie, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, is a scavenger. His wife Isla, played by Jodie Comer, suffers from an illness that clouds her mind. Their son Spike is played by Alfie Williams.

    Jamie takes Spike across the causeway for a hunting ritual that marks the passage into adulthood. On the mainland they find an Infected man, tied up and branded with the name Jimmy. Then a pack gives chase, led by an Alpha, an evolved Infected that is stronger and more intelligent than the rest. The two shelter overnight in the attic of a run-down cottage. From there Spike sees foreign boats patrolling the quarantine and a fire burning farther inland. The attic collapses, and the Alpha chases them back across the half-flooded causeway until sentries at the village kill it with a ballista.

    The village throws a party for Spike's first kill, and it goes badly for him. He is upset by the way Jamie embellishes the story of what he did. He also discovers his father's affair with Rosey, the village schoolteacher. A family friend named Sam, played by Christopher Fulford, tells him the fire probably belongs to Dr Ian Kelson, a former GP living in exile. Jamie insists that Kelson is too unstable to help anyone, and says he once saw the man burning corpses en masse. Spike, angry that his father will not seek medical care for Isla, confronts him the next morning. Unconvinced, Spike and Isla leave the island together and head for the mainland, toward whatever is burning there.

  • A Swedish Navy seaman named Erik Sundqvist pulls Spike and Isla out of a pack of Infected on the mainland. Played by Edvin Ryding, he is the only survivor of a stranded NATO quarantine patrol boat. Soon afterward, Isla finds an Infected woman in labour and helps her deliver an uninfected baby girl. Erik, paranoid, shoots the mother. He then threatens to kill Isla and Spike too unless they let him kill the newborn. Before he can act, an Alpha appears and decapitates him.

    The survivors flee, and Spike's arrows do nothing to the creature pursuing them. At the last moment Dr Ian Kelson, played by Ralph Fiennes, steps in. He fires a blowgun dart loaded with morphine and xylazine, which sedates the Alpha for a time. Kelson has named this Alpha Samson, and Chi Lewis-Parry plays him.

    Kelson leads his visitors to the Bone Temple, an ossuary built from the cleaned bones of fallen survivors and Infected alike. He explains memento mori, the funerary idea of remembering that death comes for everyone, and sets Erik's skull among the bones. After examining Isla, he concludes that she has advanced terminal cancer. To console Spike, he offers a second phrase, memento amoris, which means "remember, you must love." Isla accepts her fate and spends her last moments with her son. She arranges for Kelson to euthanise her, and he gives her skull to Spike to place at the top of the Temple.

    Samson later breaks into Kelson's sanctuary. Spike subdues him with a medicated dart and saves Kelson's life. Kelson urges the boy to take the baby home. Instead, Spike leaves her at the village gate and goes back to the mainland, still disillusioned. A note he left tells Jamie that he has named the baby after Isla and will return when he is ready. Jamie tries to follow, but the rising tide blocks his way.

  • In the Scottish Highlands, during the first outbreak of the Rage Virus, a boy named Jimmy runs from his family's house as the Infected attack. He reaches the local church, where his father, a minister, is praying in ecstasy and reading the virus as a sign of the end times. The minister hangs a crucifix necklace around his son's neck and gets him to safety. Then he submits to the Infected as they break in.

    That necklace returns in the closing scene, set 28 days later. Spike is rescued from a pack of Infected by a violent gang in coloured tracksuits and peroxide-blonde wigs. Their leader is Sir Lord Jimmy Crystal, played by Jack O'Connell, now an adult and wearing the same crucifix, inverted. Rocco Haynes plays the young Jimmy. The cast list names his followers Jimmy Ink, Jimmy Fox, Jimmy Snake and Jimmima, among others, and describes the cult as inspired by Jimmy Savile.

    Boyle and Garland have said the film explores British isolationism and cultural decline. In their account, the quarantined country reflects a wider sense of political and cultural detachment after Brexit and the COVID-19 pandemic. The island community stands for what has been called a post-progressive return to regressivism. Society turns away from forward-looking ideals and toward nostalgic myths rooted in a misremembered past.

    One montage makes the idea concrete. It blends genuine British wartime footage with scenes from the 1944 film Henry V, set to a century-old spoken recording of a Kipling poem. The filmmakers wanted to show how an isolated community rebuilds a mythology from fragments. Stories such as the Battle of Agincourt or the Blitz drift through retelling until they become instinctive half-truths.

    The characters' habits change over the years as well. Their growing willingness to take risks since the first outbreak mirrors the way society gradually relaxed its COVID-19 precautions even though the danger remained.

  • In June 2007, Fox Atomic confirmed that a third 28 Days Later film was in development, on the condition that 28 Weeks Later performed well on home video. A month later Danny Boyle said the story for a third instalment had been mapped out. Then the project stalled. By October 2010, Alex Garland blamed differences over the film rights. In January 2011 Boyle still believed the film would happen, but by April 2013 he was unsure. In January 2015 Garland said it had fallen into development hell, although serious discussions continued behind the scenes. His script carried the tentative title 28 Months Later.

    Garland's first version of that script, written on spec, took a very different direction. The rage virus would have been weaponised by a military force, and a team of Chinese special forces would have searched for the original laboratory to create a vaccine. The entire film would have been presented in subtitled Mandarin Chinese. Boyle disapproved, because he felt a weaponised virus was an overused horror trope, and he compared it to the Alien series. After the script was dropped, Garland decided to make the story "much stranger... much odder". He said the new story connected to The Last of Us, which had "such an impact" on him.

    Momentum returned slowly. In June 2019 Boyle confirmed that he and Garland had been working on the third instalment. Imogen Poots expressed interest in reprising her role from 28 Weeks Later in March 2020, and Cillian Murphy followed in May 2021. In November 2022, Boyle, Garland and Murphy all indicated interest in a sequel. In June 2023, Boyle and Garland said they intended to "seriously" and "diligently" see it into production, and announced the new title, 28 Years Later, which acknowledged how long it had taken.

    In January 2024, the film was officially announced as the first of a planned trilogy, with Garland writing every script. Andrew Macdonald, Peter Rice, Boyle and Garland were named as producers. In February, the rights to the first film reverted to Macdonald from Searchlight Pictures, and he promptly sold the distribution rights, including future sequels, to Sony Pictures. In April, Garland named the 1969 film Kes as a major influence. The production came from Columbia Pictures and DNA Films, with funding support from TSG Entertainment.

    Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer and Ralph Fiennes were cast in April 2024, followed by Jack O'Connell in May and Erin Kellyman in June. Early reports had Cillian Murphy returning as Jim. In January 2025, Macdonald confirmed that he would not appear, although Murphy remained an executive producer.

  • Principal photography began on the 7th of May 2024 in Northumberland and wrapped on the 29th of July. Anthony Dod Mantle, returning to the series, served as cinematographer. The main camera was an iPhone 15 Pro Max, supported by action cameras, drones and a mix of other digital and film cameras. That choice echoed 28 Days Later, which used the Canon XL-1 digital camcorder because it was nimble enough to film deserted locations within the time officials allowed.

    Boyle explained that phones let the crew work with minimal equipment. They reached rural landscapes in Northumberland more easily and left less environmental impact on the area. The iPhone's default software caused trouble, because its autofocus tended to favour the brightest or most prominent object instead of the intended dramatic focus. Operators had to override it by hand. Scenes were shot at 4K resolution at up to 60 frames per second, and in some scenes the actors did their own camera work.

    The most unusual rig was a custom-built circle carrying between eight and twenty iPhones. It created a bullet time effect and recorded scenes from many angles at once. That gave Boyle more flexibility in the edit.

    The frame itself was enormous. The film uses a 2.76:1 aspect ratio, recalling productions made in Ultra Panavision 70. It was chosen to emphasise the unpredictability of the Infected and to force viewers to "keep scanning" the wide image.

    Most filming took place in the North East and in Yorkshire and the Humber. Locations include Lindisfarne, Hexham, Bellingham, Kielder Forest, Rothbury, Newcastle upon Tyne, Waskerley, Melsonby, Ripon, Fountains Abbey, Aysgarth Falls, Redmire and Bradford. Some scenes were shot at Plankey Mill Farm, near Langley and Bardon Mill, and additional filming took place in Cheddar Gorge in Somerset. The Sycamore Gap tree was felled by vandals in 2023, yet it appears digitally reconstructed, because in the film's alternate timeline the vandalism never happened.

    The Infected are shown nude. According to Boyle, the actors were required by law to wear prosthetic genitalia, because the child actor Alfie Williams was on set.

    In May 2025, Young Fathers was confirmed as composer, succeeding the previous composer, John Murphy. The soundtrack came out on Milan Records.

  • On the 10th of December 2024, Sony released the first trailer, and it set a tone before a single scene had screened. It featured a spoken-word recording by the American actor Taylor Holmes, made in 1915, of Rudyard Kipling's 1903 poem "Boots". The trailer became the number one trending video on YouTube and passed 10 million views in 48 hours. Stuart Heritage, film critic for The Guardian, wrote: "As of now, though, it's just about the most exciting film of 2025. And this is entirely down to its trailer." The response led Sony to re-release the original 28 Days Later on digital platforms on the 18th of December 2024.

    A special day-ahead preview took place on the 19th of June 2025 at the Tyneside Cinema in Newcastle upon Tyne. Boyle and the local actor Alfie Williams attended, along with crew, service providers and extras from across Northumberland who had worked on the location shoot. Sony Pictures Releasing opened the film in the United Kingdom, the United States and Canada on the 20th of June 2025.

    In the United States and Canada, the film opened beside Elio. Forecasts expected about $30 million from 3,444 theatres, and some estimates reached $45 million. It took $14 million on its first day, including $5.8 million from Thursday previews. The weekend total came to $30 million, second behind the holdover How to Train Your Dragon. It was still the highest opening weekend of the franchise.

    The final worldwide gross was $151.3 million against a $60 million budget. That total was split between $70.4 million in the United States and Canada and $80.9 million in other territories. Sony released the film digitally on the 29th of July 2025, and on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray and DVD on the 23rd of September 2025.

  • Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave 28 Years Later an average grade of B, and 52 percent of those surveyed by PostTrak said they would definitely recommend it. Critics were more divided at the extremes. Robbie Collin of The Daily Telegraph gave it five stars out of five, calling it a mix of A Canterbury Tale and Cannibal Holocaust. Ed Potton of The Times also gave five out of five and called it "astonishing". He conceded that its "sense of hallucinogenic sweatiness" would not suit everyone. Robert Daniels of RogerEbert.com gave three and a half out of four and praised Boyle and Garland for subverting expectations.

    Others were cooler. Clarisse Loughrey of The Independent gave three out of five and called it "a post-Brexit, COVID-19-conscious take on this world". Adam Graham of The Detroit News gave it a D and warned that viewers might suffer "genre whiplash". Kyle Smith of The Wall Street Journal found it "short on wit and narrative coherence". Scout Tafoya, also of RogerEbert.com, still named it the third best film of 2025.

    The film appears in award listings from many bodies. These include the British Academy Film Awards, the Saturn Awards, the Golden Trailer Awards and several critics' groups. Alfie Williams is named repeatedly, and Ralph Fiennes, Jodie Comer, Anthony Dod Mantle and Young Fathers also appear.

    In April 2024, Nia DaCosta was reportedly in negotiations to direct a sequel. A copyright filing in June 2024 revealed its title, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. On the 18th of August 2024, at the Edinburgh International Film Festival, Macdonald confirmed DaCosta as director. Principal photography began the next day, back-to-back with the first film. The Bone Temple opened in the United Kingdom on the 13th of January 2026 as a double bill with 28 Years Later. It was released individually on the 14th, and in the United States on the 16th.

    In December 2025, after well-received press screenings, Sony greenlit a third film in the trilogy. Boyle is returning to direct, Garland is writing, and Cillian Murphy was reported to be in talks to reprise his role from 28 Days Later. But The Bone Temple earned $58,522,222 worldwide, far below the $151,329,249 of its predecessor, and doubts remain. As Boyle told The Hollywood Reporter in June 2025: "We're still trying to get the money for the third one."
