Not fairly 28 years later, filmmakers Danny Boyle and Alex Garland are returning to the zombie story that revitalized and developed the zombie style. The horror story that kicked off with 2001’s 28 Days Later and continued in 2007’s 28 Weeks Later jumps ahead nearly three a long time to a world fully modified by the Rage Virus.
The truth is, the primary trailer for the long-awaited third installment reveals an England the place survivors armed with bows and arrows dwell in primitive settlements and a grimy Ralph Fiennes stalks round a temple-like construction made from human skulls. However the trailer could not simply be exhibiting us what occurred to society after the Rage Virus unfold to mainland Europe (and presumably the remainder of the world). In line with some eagle-eyed followers, it might additionally reveal the darkish destiny of Cillian Murphy’s protagonist from 28 Days Later… Watch the trailer under:
So, the place’s Jim? Followers shortly locked in on one very transient shot within the trailer, at 1:47, by which an emaciated contaminated rises from a discipline to do some chomping, whereas form of bearing a resemblance to the Oscar-winning actor. To some viewers, that is affirmation that Jim was contaminated by the Rage Virus sooner or later after the unique movie. That in fact wouldn’t be fully stunning if he occurred to be one of many individuals who returned to England to re-settle the nation proper earlier than issues went to absolute hell in 28 Weeks Later. Or maybe Jim, Selena, and Hannah have been by no means truly rescued because the ending of the unique movie advised.
In fact, it have to be mentioned {that a} huge deal has been made about Murphy’s return to the franchise. Bringing again the Oppenheimer actor only for a cameo as a strolling corpse will surely be a alternative. The truth is, Murphy was noticed filming scenes as Not A Corpse Jim as not too long ago as September. However even when the contaminated on this scene actually is meant to be Jim, there’s one other attainable clarification: within the authentic movie, Jim has goals which can be initially introduced as actuality. Maybe that’s what’s occurring right here. An older Jim is imagining what would occur if he have been to be contaminated. That’s this author’s concept, anyway.
