Last month, Boyle told Empire that he was going to be directing the trilogy capper, and claimed that it wouldn’t be shot “until audiences respond to the first film.” Judging by the record-breaking reaction to the trailer, I don’t believe Boyle/Garland will have much of a problem completing their trilogy.

In fact, it actually looks like it’s now on the fast track as a recent listing has “28 Years Later: Part 3” starting production on March 31, 2025. The entire trilogy will have been shot and completed by the time Boyle starts to do press on the first one in June.
