28 Years Later Reveals Shocking Connections to the Original Film and Explosive Lore Updates!

by

Time flew by in 2007, while on the 2025 film schedule, time leaps ahead to years – under the shadow of terror. Director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland are back with “28 Years Later“, a sequel we’ve eagerly anticipated for quite some time. As a fan of their earlier works, I’m excited about the glimpses of the upcoming horror movie that have been unveiled.

Once again, that theory has been validated, as not only has the movie starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson unveiled a fresh trailer, but in a recent interview, Mr. Garland revealed some major insights about the canon. As fans, we’re buzzing with excitement, so let’s dive deep into how the past seems to be shaping the future.

We Might Finally See The Origins Of 28 Days Later’s Infected Priest

Ever since the initial trailer for “28 Years Later” was released, a particular scene from the 2002 movie “28 Days Later” has been a common topic in discussions. When swarms of Infected overran a church during the prologue of the teaser, many began to speculate whether Cillian Murphy’s initial confrontation with this church-bound menace would be revisited in some way.

If the scene from ’28 Days Later’ isn’t fresh in your mind or if you haven’t had a chance to watch it due to its long absence from circulation, that’s perfectly fine. Since ’28 Days Later’ wasn’t readily available for quite some time, it might be that you missed it, or it has been a while since you last saw it. So sit back and reminisce with this throwback:

It’s been widely speculated that the upcoming film, 28 Years Later, will begin with scenes depicting the first outbreak of the Rage Virus. This theory has been gaining traction among fans, and some believe it could link to the enigmatic character played by Jack O’Connell, Sir Jimmy Crystal.

Indeed, it seems plausible that the Jimmy I’ve been theorizing about in relation to Cillian Murphy’s comeback in “28 Years Later” could very well be the same; thus, perhaps Jim hasn’t succumbed to darkness as we once thought. However, I must confess, even if this character isn’t the priest from “28 Days Later”, it promises an intriguing glimpse into how that haunting location ended up in such ruins by the time it was depicted in the horror classic.

Indeed, as mentioned earlier, a crucial element has now come together in our investigation. For those who’ve been questioning the validity of “28 Weeks Later” in our storyline, let me put your doubts to rest with my professional insight.

Writer Alex Garland Found An Explosive Solution To Handling The Ending Of 28 Weeks Later

A noteworthy update arose during an AMA (Ask Me Anything) session, where Alex Garland participated, primarily to publicize his latest movie titled “Warfare”. Predictably, the curiosity about how a Paris infested with Infected at the end of director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo’s sequel to 28 Days Later aligns with the vision for this prospective trilogy has been on the minds of some dedicated fans.

Indeed, when someone asked me about the portrayal of slavery in my Civil War film on Reddit, I responded with the following:

“Absolutely! My aim was to shed light on the harsh realities of slavery and its impact on both enslaved individuals and their oppressors. By exploring these complexities, I hoped to spark meaningful conversations about our shared history.

It’s allowed for. We made the assumption that Paris got nuked.

It looks like those Eiffel Tower visit plans won’t work out after all. As we delve deeper into the world depicted in 28 Years Later, it seems we might be on the brink of something extraordinary. Even though this could just be the start of a lengthy and engaging journey, I have one last point to mention.

28 Years Later Could Have A Viral Marketing Site Debuting Real Soon

As a cinephile, when I caught wind of the latest teaser for “28 Years Later,” my heart skipped a beat. Lo and behold, another Morse Code message seemed to materialize right before my eyes! If you’re curious like me, give that clip a peek below and be sure you can distinguish dots from dashes!

For individuals who weren’t born into the Navy, the message appears to resemble a web address: RageLeaks-dot-net. It seems that Reddit users have deciphered the code, and indeed, a site with that name does appear to exist, though it currently remains locked with an Administrator password. As of now, no one has managed to crack the password.

It seems quite likely that, assuming everything verifies, this might serve as an authentic viral marketing platform, offering a rich narrative background for the happenings between “28 Weeks Later” and “28 Years Later”. If you’re someone who enjoyed delving deeply into the lore of “Cloverfield” through its viral marketing, then the day you’ve been eagerly waiting for could finally be here.

As for those magnificent days, the movie “28 Years Later” will hit the screens from June 20th onwards. Cherish every moment, for time waits for none.
