The Bone Temple Featurette Looks at ‘The Evolution’

We’re only 5 weeks away from 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple arriving in cinemas in the the UK, Ireland and the U.S. Sony Pictures have sent us a new Featurette call ‘Evolution’ that delves into how the Rage Virus has evolved since the original film.

28 Years Later earlier this year left many scratching their heads especially with the ending. It had a lot to say on contemporary UK, it hinted a darker edge with Jimmy Crystal (O’Connell). This behind the scenes promo teases The Jimmies and Dr Kelson’s (Fiennes) plan for the infected.

If you have been listening to the gossip, could Nia DaCosta‘s film finally be the point Cillian Murphy returns as Jim?

Synopsis | Expanding upon the world created by Danny Boyle and Alex Garland in 28 Years Later – but turning that world on its head – Nia DaCosta directs 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. In a continuation of the epic story, Dr. Kelson (Ralph Fiennes) finds himself in a shocking new relationship – with consequences that could change the world as they know it – and Spike’s (Alfie Williams) encounter with Jimmy Crystal (Jack O’Connell) becomes a nightmare he can’t escape. In the world of The Bone Temple, the infected are no longer the greatest threat to survival – the inhumanity of the survivors can be stranger and more terrifying.

The film stars Ralph Fiennes, Alfie Williams, Jack O’Connell, Erin Kellyman, and Chi Lewis-Parry. 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple will be in UK and Irish cinemas on 14th January 2026 (16th in the U.S).
