Danny Boyle has revealed that he might direct the proposed horror sequel, 28 Months Later. Boyle directed the original 28 Days Later, and executive produced 28 Weeks Later but could now be set to return and helm the follow up movie.

Boyle told IGN: “I love doing stuff that is ‘How are you going to direct that? How would you do that?’ It’s like this project – it’s like the Steve Jobs. You go ‘How are you going to do that?’ That’s a wonderful place to start off. The worst place is when you know how to do it. Or you think you do. Because actually you don’t. The audience spot that quite quickly – they’re weird, and rightfully so, they’re righteous judges of us. They go ‘Oh, he’s done that before – that’s crap.’ I’ve learnt that. So if it’s something that I’ve felt that about, then I’d have no hesitation.”

As for Garland’s idea for the film’s story…

“It is a good idea, which I can’t obviously say what it is. But it’s a lovely idea. Because there’s been so many stories told since we did the first one – you know in television and other movies and stuff like that. It’s become such a popular device – the walking dead if you like, or zombies, or the infected as we called them.

“But he had a lovely idea on them and it’s being worked on. It’s not as far advanced – I can’t tell you more about it than that, because it’s not as far advanced as Trainspotting 2, but then it started later. Ten months seems like a long time to you guys, but in terms of the gestation of things that’s not an enormous amount of time. I wouldn’t be over-concerned yet that it’s not going to arrive.”

Boyle’s latest movie Steve Jobs hasn’t done as well as it was expected to but it is still being shown in cinemas nationwide.
