28 Years Later (2025) First Look Trailer

The plot synopsis of 28 Years Later reveals a major detail about how the world has changed since the previous installment. 2002’s 28 Days Later introduced the rage virus, a virulent disease that transforms its hosts into the ravenous, fast-moving, zombie-like Infected. While the outbreak in the movie was limited to the island of Great Britain, the finale of the 2007 sequel 28 Weeks Later featured it spreading to continental Europe by showcasing a group of Infected running through Paris after surviving characters Tammy (Imogen Poots) and Andy (Mackintosh Muggleton) crash-landed there.

The upcoming 28 Years Later, which is set to premiere in theaters on June 20, 2025, is intended to be the first installment of a new trilogy of movies continuing the franchise after more than a decade. The first of the trilogy reteams original director Danny Boyle with original writer Alex Garland and original star Cillian Murphy as Jim. The ensemble cast of the movie also includes Kraven the Hunter’s Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Killing Eve’s Jodie Comer, The Menu’s Ralph Fiennes, Unbroken’s Jack O’Connell, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier’s Erin Kellyman, and Young Royals’ Edvin Ryding.
