28 Weeks Sequel Will Be Two Movies, Lands At Sony
The director and writer for 28 Years Later, Danny Boyle and Alex Garland, have found a home for their new zombie movie with Sony. Not only that but the upcoming project will be told in two films.
Thanks to The Hollywood Reporter, we know that Boyle is set to direct the first film, and as of now, no director is tied to the second movie. In addition, it’s being reported that Cillian Murphy is set to return as an executive producer, and it’s currently unknown if he’ll start in it, too.
Just a few weeks ago, both Boyle and writer Garland went shopping around to see which studios would be interested in the film, and it came down to Warners Bros. and Sony. The report goes on to explain that currently, it’s unclear how much the film was purchased for, but it is worth mentioning that the last two installments in the franchise had a budget of $60 million.
