Danny Boyle To Direct 28 MONTHS LATER??


Merrick here...

In early October, reports from the Stiges International Film Festival said that Paul Andrew Willams (THE COTTAGE, LONDON TO BRIGHTON) would direct 28 MONTHS LATER - a second sequel to 28 DAYS LATER. This report came to us from Arrow in the Head, via JoBlo. You can find a report about it HERE.

Turns out, this may nt necessarily be the case. Danny Boyle, director of 28 DAYS LATER and producer of its first sequel, has expressed interest in directing a third installment of the plaguey franchise.

"I'd certainly like to," Boyle said in a group interview on Nov. 6 in Beverly Hills, Calif., where he was promoting his latest film, Slumdog Millionaire. "I feel the idea is quite a strong idea, and it could well involve directing it. Yeah, absolutely."

...says THIS ARTICLE at SciFi.com.

Boyle''s apparently awesome SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE will be hitting theaters very soon. A trailer for it can be found HERE.
