‘28 Years Later’ Trailer: Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Ralph Fiennes Fight Zombies in Danny Boyle’s Apocalyptic Threequel — but Is Cillian Murphy One of Them?

variety.com:

Lauren Coates Lace up your running shoes and get ready to return to Danny Boyle and Alex Garland’s world of fleet-footed zombies because “28 Years Later” has its first official trailer.

The third installment in the “28 Days Later” franchise sees Boyle and Garland return to their respective roles in the franchise as director and writer, having served as executive producers on Juan Carlos Fersnadillo’s 2007 sequel “28 Weeks Later.” The film is led by franchise newcomers Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer and Ralph Fiennes, who are seen throughout the creepy trailer fighting off zombies.

Though original movie star Cillian Murphy had been reported to be reprising his role as Jim in addition to being an executive producer, he appears absent from the trailer and is not listed as a cast member in the promotional material.

However, the new trailer features a particularly jarring clip of a zombie that some on social media speculated bears a resemblance to the Oscar winner. (Columbia Pictures did not immediately respond to Variety‘s request for comment on the matter.) Other new cast members include Erin Kellyman and Jack O’Connell.
