After about two decades of radio silence and rotting cities, the 28 Days Later universe is finally rising from the grave, this time with more blood, more brains, and yes, more Cillian Murphy. Fans of the cult classic have waited years to see if Jim, the bike-courier-turned-apocalypse-survivor, would ever return to the infection-ravaged UK. And now, director Danny Boyle is cracking open the vault of secrets.
While 28 Years Later kicks off the new trilogy with a fresh cast and unfamiliar horrors, all eyes are on the second installment, The Bone Temple, where Murphy’s return is finally confirmed. But don’t expect a full-blown hero entrance just yet. Boyle teases a brief, possibly game-changing appearance that could ripple into the trilogy’s grand finale.
The producer talked about 28 Years Later in a recent interview with Business Insider and revealed that the Oppenheimer actor will have a role in Nia DaCosta's sequel as he said,
“She [DaCosta/ gets a bit of Cillian at the end. All I can say is you have to wait for Cillian, but hopefully he will help us get the third film financed.”
Boyle had previously confirmed Murphy's inclusion in the film while also teasing the actor's possible return to the franchise's third film, as he told IGN,
"We haven't got the money for the third one yet. It will depend how the first one does, I guess. But hopefully if we do ok, they'll give us the go-ahead for the money and for the third one. Everybody's standing by for that, really. Including Cillian."

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple drags us back into the infected wasteland of Britain, this time, and it seems lkke the horror has aged like fine rot. Directed by Nia DaCosta and written by OG chaos architect Alex Garland, the second chapter of the new trilogy is shaping up to be both a spiritual reckoning and a brutal survival story.
Set decades after the original Rage Virus outbreak, the film follows a young boy and his desperate journey through a decaying UK to find a doctor for his dying mother. But this isn’t the same virus-riddled world we remember, it’s more dangerous, more twisted, and teeming with cults, mutations, and the ghosts of humanity’s past mistakes. Leading the cast is Aaron Taylor-Johnson, backed by Jack O’Connell as a cult leader with messiah delusions and Emma Laird as a survivor with secrets.
