Just some confirmation that a third 28 Years Later is still happening and Cillian Murphy will most likely return.
Sony is proceeding with a third 28 Years Later movie following the electric fan reaction from recent screenings of the second film, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, directed by Nia DaCosta. That pic comes out over MLK weekend, on January 16, 2026. The third movie in the latest trilogy doesn’t have a title yet.
The buzz is that 28 Days Later star Cillian Murphy, who reprises his role in The Bone Temple, is in talks, and franchise scribe Alex Garland is currently writing part 3. Murphy is an EP on 28 Years Later and 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. The Oppenheimer Best Actor Oscar winner is repped by CAA and Sloane, Offer, Weber & Dern.
