28 Years Later: A chilling post-apocalyptic horror movie finds me among a band of survivors holed up on a secluded island, battling the spreading chaos on the mainland. As time goes by, it becomes clear that even those we thought safe have been tainted by a sinister mutation. With the film’s premiere fast approaching, I, along with fellow fans, eagerly await the reappearance of Cillian Murphy’s enigmatic character, Jim.
Here is everything you need to know about the popular character’s presence in the movie.
Will Cillian Murphy’s Jim return in 28 Years Later?
No, Cillian Murphy’s Jim won’t return in 28 Years Later.
In the initial zombie series movie, 28 Days Later, which debuted in 2002, Cillian Murphy played the lead character. Regrettably, he didn’t appear in the sequel, 28 Weeks Later. With the third installment of the franchise arriving after nearly two decades, fans were hopeful that Murphy would reprise his Jim role. However, it turns out he won’t be there for this part, but here’s a twist: the actor will eventually make a comeback in future episodes of the series.
As a gaming enthusiast, I’m super excited to share some exciting news! If you haven’t heard, 28 Years Later is gearing up for a fresh trilogy. The sequel, titled “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple,” has just wrapped up filming and is scheduled for release next year. Director Danny Boyle recently spilled the beans to IGN that Peaky Blinders actor Cillian Murphy will be reprising his role in the second installment. He casually mentioned, “He’s in the second one” and playfully warned he might get killed if he reveals too much!
On the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Boyle stated, “I’ve been advised to tell you that patience often brings about good outcomes, and there are many positive aspects linked with Cillian. Although Murphy may only have a minor role in the sequel, he might take the lead in the third installment if the first two movies perform well. Boyle further mentioned, “If we secure the funding, Cillian will undoubtedly play a significant part in the third chapter of the film.
Fans eagerly anticipate Murphy’s comeback to the series following the director’s favorable remarks, as its long-awaited sequel is scheduled for a U.S. premiere on June 20, 2025, after a 28-year hiatus.
