Are you ready for 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple trailer?

"As previously reported, the critically acclaimed 2002 film 28 Days Later is often credited with sparking the 21st-century revival of the zombie genre. In that film, a highly contagious "Rage Virus" was accidentally released from a lab in Cambridge, England. Those infected turned into violent, mindless monsters who brutally attacked the uninfected-so-called "fast zombies." Transmitted by bites, scratches, or even just by getting a drop of infected blood in one's system, the virus spreads rapidly, effectively collapsing society."

"The sequel, 28 Weeks Later, featured a new cast of characters living on the outskirts of London. Britain had begun rebuilding, taking in refugees and moving them to safe-zone districts. But all it takes is one careless person getting infected for the virus to spread uncontrollably again. So naturally, that's what happened. The survivors eventually fled to France, only for the virus to spread there, too."

Sony Pictures has completed filming on 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, directed by Nia DaCosta and scheduled for release next year, and the first trailer has been released. The new film appears grimly compelling while aiming to retain the 2025 film's heart. The 2002 film 28 Days Later introduced a highly contagious Rage Virus accidentally released from a Cambridge lab, producing violent "fast zombies" and collapsing society through bites, scratches, or infected blood. The 2007 sequel 28 Weeks Later portrayed rebuilding efforts, safe-zone districts, and a single infection reigniting spread that reached France. A later third film was set 28 years later, showing Britain under strict quarantine and isolated island survivors, including Isla and her husband Jamie.
