In a groundbreaking move, acclaimed director Danny Boyle has shot his upcoming horror film ’28 Years Later’ entirely on the iPhone 15, marking the first major film to utilize a smartphone for all filming. The film, with a budget of $75 million, is expected to hit theaters in June 2025.
Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle took a bold step for his latest film, ’28 Years Later’, shooting the $75 million sequel entirely on Apple’s iPhone 15 Pro Max. This move comes 21 years after his debut film ’28 Days Later’ was filmed with a traditional Canon XL-1 camera. The production used customized rigs and attachments, allowing them to utilize full-frame DSLR lenses for a unique cinematic look. The film is expected to release in 2025.
Hollywood stars Jodie Comer (‘Killing Eve’), Aaron Taylor-Johnson (‘Bullet Train’), and Ralph Fiennes (‘The Menu’) have joined the cast of ’28 Years Later,’ the long-awaited sequel to the 2002 zombie hit ’28 Days Later.’ Original filmmakers Danny Boyle and Alex Garland are reuniting for the project, which is set to launch a trilogy. Boyle will direct the first film from a script penned by Garland, and they will also produce the project alongside original producer Andrew Macdonald and Peter Rice. Details about the characters to be played by Comer, Taylor-Johnson, and Fiennes are being kept under wraps.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson has reportedly been cast in ’28 Years Later’. The project, set to be directed by Danny Boyle and written by Alex Garland, will also feature Ralph Fiennes and Jodie Comer. Taylor-Johnson’s involvement in the film adds to the growing anticipation for the sequel to the 2002 hit ’28 Days Later’. While plot details remain under wraps, the film is expected to be a new trilogy for the franchise, with Boyle directing the first installment and Garland penning all three scripts.
The upcoming ’28 Years Later’ has cast Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, and Ralph Fiennes, raising speculation about Johnson’s potential to become the next James Bond. The actor, who has a strong filmography and is reunited with ‘The King’s Man’ co-star Ralph Fiennes and former ‘James Bond’ M, could benefit from a long-term contract with Sony Pictures, which would secure his role as Commander Bond and his involvement in the planned ’28 Years Later’ sequels.
The highly anticipated sequel to Danny Boyle’s acclaimed 2002 film ’28 Days Later’ has expanded its cast with the addition of Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes. The film, titled ’28 Years Later,’ will mark the return of Boyle as director and screenwriter Alex Garland.
