As 2025 unfolds, film fans eagerly await releases like *Avatar: Fire and Ash*, *Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning*, and *Superman: Legacy*. Among these, *28 Years Later* stands out, revisiting the post-apocalyptic world of its predecessors. Directed by Danny Boyle, the film follows a new survivor family on Holy Island, isolated for decades. Plans for a trilogy are underway, although Cillian Murphy will not reprise his role in this installment. The film premieres in French theaters on June 18, 2025.

Exciting Films to Watch in 2025

As we step into 2025, film enthusiasts are buzzing with excitement about a lineup of highly anticipated movies. Among the most awaited titles are *Avatar: Fire and Ash*, *Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning*, and the much-discussed *Superman: Legacy*. However, for fans of post-apocalyptic narratives, *28 Years Later* stands out as the must-see film of the year.

What to Expect from 28 Years Later

If you’re a zombie movie aficionado, you’re likely familiar with *28 Days Later* and its sequel *28 Weeks Later*. The original film, released in 2002 and directed by Danny Boyle, follows Jim (played by Cillian Murphy), who awakens from a coma to find London ravaged by a catastrophic virus. This cult classic was followed by a sequel in 2007, and now, it returns with a thrilling third installment this year. Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland have rejoined forces, revealing exciting details about the film to *Empire* magazine.

This time, the narrative shifts significantly as it explores a United Kingdom that has remained isolated from the rest of the world for nearly three decades. The storyline introduces a new family of survivors: Jamie (the father, portrayed by Aaron Taylor-Johnson), Isla (the mother, played by Jodie Comer), and their 12-year-old son, Spike (Alfie Williams). They navigate life on Holy Island, a location that offers a temporary haven from the relentless zombies.

Holy Island, known as Lindisfarne, is uniquely accessible only during low tide, adding to its mystique and allure. Danny Boyle has indicated that the community in *28 Years Later* adheres to stringent defensive measures. The film kicks off with Spike facing a crucial rite of passage, leading him away from the safety of Holy Island, but of course, unforeseen challenges await.

The Future of the Franchise

The anticipation surrounding *28 Years Later* is palpable, and it’s worth noting that Boyle and Garland have ambitious plans for the franchise. They intend to produce not just one, but a trilogy, with *28 Years Later: The Bone Temple* already filmed. However, the third installment remains contingent on the success of this initial film.

Interestingly, while many fans speculated about Cillian Murphy’s return in the teaser, it has been confirmed that he will not be part of this film. Boyle and Garland clarified in their *Empire* interview that Murphy’s role has shifted to a producer for now, although there are hopes to weave his character back into the trilogy later. Mark your calendars, as *28 Years Later* is set to hit French theaters on June 18, 2025.

In other news, if you were captivated by the first season of the Fallout series on Amazon Prime Video, you’ll be eager for the second season. Unfortunately, filming has been delayed due to significant wildfires in Los Angeles, adding to the suspense for fans.
