In 2002, 28 Days Later was released, a post-apocalyptic story about a world in which a malicious virus has turned most people into zombie-like creatures. Danny Boyle directed this horror story, Alex Garland wrote the screenplay. In 2025, the story continued with 28 Years Later, another collaboration between Boyle and Garland. In this film, young Spike travels with his father from a heavily guarded island to a dangerous, infected area on the mainland in the hope of finding a cure for his mother.
