28 Weeks Later

So I'm a bit of a Zombie fan, and 28 Days Later was one of my favourite. What didn't get me excited however was plans to make a sequel. This is especially so, as according to joblo, Danny Boyle and Alex Garland, the director and writer (respectively) of 28 DAYS LATER, served only as executive producers of this film. Oh dear.

However because the people over at blackfilm have scored themselves some pics, I figured I may as well put some up here and give you all a brief rundown...

Six months after the rage virus has annihilated the British Isles, the US Army declares that the war against infection has been won, and that the reconstruction of the country can begin. Under the strict supervision of the U.S. Military, the first wave of refugees is allowed back into the city. Among them are Don (Robert Carlyle), his new girlfriend Scarlett (Rose Byrne), and Don’s two children. Don lost his wife during the original infection, while Scarlett lost her entire family. All seems under control until a new carrier of the virus makes his way within the quarantined area. As the only known live specimen, he becomes a vital tool to the scientists who hope to learn from their discovery. Call it carelessness or call it bad luck, but the virus eventually spreads once again and now may be even more difficult to contain than the first time around. Jeremy Renner plays Sgt. Doyle who is part of the American Special Forces team working on restoring order in London. Harold Perrineau will co-star as Flynn, an upbeat Special Forces pilot who leads the families returning to London to their safety, while documenting the ordeal with his camera. Elba plays General Stone is the guy overseeing district 1 in London.


Hhhmmm, here comes the Yanks to save the Brits... that's never gonna float, oh well, might be fun...
