Carlyle plays Don, a man who has lost his wife but is reunited with his children, Andy (Mackintosh Muggleton) and Tammy (Imogen Poots), near the start of Fresnadillo's film. The American military are slowly bringing British citizens back to London, where a heavily guarded community is picking up the pieces and trying to return to normal life. The zombies (again referred to as "the infected") from the first film have died out and England is ready for repopulation. In their places step director/co-writer Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (INTACTO) and actor Robert Carlyle (TRAINSPOTTING), who bring the original story to its next logical step.
Few elements from the first film remain-actor Cilian Murphy doesn't return, and Boyle and screenwriter/novelist Alex Garland take producer credits this time out. Jim manages to escape "the infected" and locate a band of survivors-Selena (Naomie Harris), Hannah (Megan Burns), and Frank (Brendan Gleeson)-and they join forces searching for solutions, clinging to hope that somewhere healthy humanity thrives.28 WEEKS LATER: Danny Boyle's surprise 2003 hit, 28 DAYS LATER, gets the sequel treatment here. They are violently sick, fast-moving, bloodthirsty zombies who travel at night in ravenous packs. However, upon entering a church that is littered with dead bodies, he discovers that he is not alone-"the infected" are still living. He wanders the vacant streets of London feeling as if he's trapped in a never-ending hallucination. Jim (Cillian Murphy), a bicycle messenger who was in an accident just days before the outbreak, is one of very few survivors who awakes 28 days later to a city that has been evacuated and is now utterly lifeless. This two-pack features both the original and sequel to Christopher Boyle's well regarded post-apocalyptic thriller.28 DAYS LATER: 28 DAYS LATER: This post-apocalyptic thriller is set in an empty, haunting London after a deadly, Ebola-like virus has swept through the city.
