If you pay attention carefully, it seems like the approaching footsteps are those of the Infected, moving towards the 2025 film release schedule. The highly anticipated arrival of the movie “28 Years Later” has always felt like a cause for celebration, just by its existence alone. Now, it appears that the positive news about this upcoming horror movie’s pre-sales is spreading even more widely, which will surely bring joy to anyone eagerly waiting for its release.
As a passionate movie reviewer, I’m thrilled to share that the early ticket sales for this upcoming horror film have shattered records! In just 24 hours, it managed to outperform four major horror blockbusters, raking in an impressive $34 million. This groundbreaking achievement has catapulted Sony’s first collaboration with Danny Boyle and Alex Garland within the franchise to the top spot for 2025’s best horror pre-seller. It surpassed the box office success of “Final Destination: Bloodlines,” “Sinners,” as well as the 2024 releases, “Alien: Romulus” and “Nosferatu.” Simply put, this film is setting the stage for a terrifying trilogy!
Isn’t it reasonable to expect such rapid spread from a common Infected, given the circumstances? Similarly, just as this year’s reboot of “Final Destination” benefits from its legacy, the movie “28 Years Later” embraces its status as a sequel. If we accept that the opening weekend box office for “Bloodlines” is typical, our return to a UK plagued by the Rage Virus could shatter box office records once more.
Indeed, quite a bit hinges on the events unfolding this weekend, as it appears Universal/DreamWorks’ “How to Train Your Dragon” is poised for an outstanding debut. Similar to the sustained success of “Lilo & Stitch”, families have been eagerly attending revamped versions of beloved classics. Intriguingly, a similar trend might emerge with “28 Years Later”, even though its sequel-legacy format explores new narrative territory – and caters more to an adult audience rather than families.
Given its production budget of approximately $75 million, it’s likely that the film titled “28 Years Later” will begin generating profits soon. Despite the fierce competition with upcoming films such as “F1, M3GAN 2.0, “, and “Jurassic World Rebirth“, multiple viewings could significantly impact its international success. Fingers crossed that we won’t have to wait much longer for news about whether the final chapter of “28 Years Later” gets a go-ahead.
Once more, the end approaches as “28 Years Later” graces the silver screen on June 20th. Its sequel, titled “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple,” is slated for a January 2026 premiere! If you’re keen to revisit the original “28 Days Later”, you can stream it for free with ads on Pluto TV right now!
