Story Plot

In the years since the 2007 release of the sequel 28 Weeks Later, rumors and discussions of a possible third installment in the series have been constantly floating around. At first, it didn't seem likely given that 28 Weeks Later didn't gross as much as its predecessor, 2002's groundbreaking 28 Days Later, and the shutdown of 20th Century Fox's short-lived low-budget genre label Fox Atomic. From the 2010's onward, even with Disney's later acquisition of Fox, the original film's creators — director Danny Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland — have had several creative conversations about a potential third film, developing a working concept alongside producer Andrew Macdonald. Cillian Murphy has even stated that he was open to the idea of reprising his role from the first film. Whether or not it will actually happen remains to be seen. Follow me and ponder the question, "What if...?"
