We had earlier reported that 28 Years Later is the first in a planned trilogy of sequels. With the first part yet to hit theatres, the makers have already announced the sequel’s release date. The second film titled 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple has landed a January 16, 2026 release date from Columbia Pictures.
28 Years Laterstarring Jodie Comer, Ralph Fiennes, and Aaron Taylor-Johnson, along with Jack O’Connell and Erin Kellyman, will be released on June 20, 2025. The second installment, directed by Candyman director Nia DiCosta with a screenplay by Alex Garland, was shot back-to-back with the first film.
The upcoming film, helmed by Danny Boyle, had its trailer unveiled earlier this month. “It’s been almost three decades since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, and now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected,” the 28 Years Later official synopsis reads. “One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.” The sequel’s plot remain under wraps.
Boyle and Garland are producing the movies alongside Andrew Macdonald, Peter Rice and Bernard Bellew. Murphy is executive producing.
