‘28 Years Later' New Trailer: 'There Are Many Kinds Of Death… And Some Are Better Than Others'
Here's the latest trailer for Danny Boyle's upcoming 28 Years Later. Previously shown to exhibition during Sony's CinemaCon presentation earlier this month, the new look offers more insight into what's in store for the next installment of the zombie thriller franchise. Check it out above.
Written by Alex Garland and starring Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jack O'Connell, Alfie Williams and Ralph Fiennes, the story picks up nearly three decades after the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory in 28 Days Later. Now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected.

One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one of the group (Taylor-Johnson) leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well.
'Once you walk onto that mainland, there's no rescues,' we hear as zombies are hunted and attack. Says Fiennes' Dr. Kelson ominously, 'There are many kinds of death… And some are better than others.'
The first trailer, which dropped back in December and is the third most-watched horror trailer ever with 60.2 million views in its first 24 hours, had featured Taylor-Johnson's paternal figure guarding the green fields of England with a bow and arrow, accompanied by the unsettling sound of a Taylor Holmes recording of Rudyard Kipling's war poem 'Boots.' The poem also provides chilling background to the new trailer.
28 Years Later is set for domestic release on June 20. Producers are Andrew Macdonald, Peter Rice, Bernard Bellew, Boyle and Garland. 28 Days Later star Cillian Murphy exec produces. Murphy does not appear in 28 Years Later, but is expected to turn up down the line. Said Boyle at CinemaCon, 'like all good things in life you may have to wait a while for him to make his appearance.'
The second film in the newly revamped trilogy — 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple — will hit North American theaters on January 16, 2026. At CinemaCon, Boyle told the Las Vegas audience that he doesn't have finance for the third movie and urged exhibition to 'support the continuing apocalypse' so he 'might get to come back here with the third film.'

Madonna Teams Up With Shawn Levy and Netflix For a Limited Series Based on Her Life: Report
Madonna fans have been waiting for years to see the Queen of Pop get her very own biopic — and according to a new report, they may finally get to see one. According to a report from Deadline on Monday (May 12), Madonna has teamed up with Deadpool & Wolverine producer Shawn Levy to develop a limited series based on her life and career for Netflix. Levy's production company 21 Laps currently has an exclusive deal with Netflix. More from Billboard See Madonna, Chappell Roan, Charli xcx & Lorde Squeeze In for Epic Met Gala Selfie Twenty One Pilots Fans Jumped Into Veronica Mars Mode After Someone Took Off With One of Josh Dun's Bespoke Drums Palm Tree Festival to Debut in St. Tropez With Headliners A$AP Rocky & Swedish House Mafia Billboard reached out to representatives for Madonna and Netflix for comment. The new project is apparently not related to a much-discussed and since-delayed feature film based on Madonna's life. The project, which was being developed by Universal Pictures and set to star Ozark and Inventing Anna actress Julia Garner as the pop superstar, was put on an indefinite hold in 2023 as Madonna embarked on her Celebration World Tour. In 2024, however, Madonna sparked rumors that the film might be back in the works, when she shared a since-deleted photo of herself sitting at a typewriter working on a screenplay titled Who's That Girl — an apparent nod to her 1987 film and song of the same name. Still, Madonna herself floated the idea of creating a TV series about her life in November of last year, claiming that a number of 'producers and agents' told her that she wouldn't be able to make her film the way she wanted to. 'Downsize-down scale-think smaller-they say—I realized that everything in my life is going to be challenged,' she wrote in a since-removed post, before asking her fans if they would prefer to see her story adapted into 'a series or a feature film.'

Don Johnson Talks Smoking Weed in the White House and Reveals How Much Money He Made Gambling with a U.S. President
During a June 4 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Don Johnson opened up about his bond with former Presidents Jimmy Carter and George H.W. Bush The actor revealed that he has smoked weed in the White House and that he gambled with Bush Johnson has visited the White House under every president since Carter was in officeDon Johnson has had interesting friendships with several U.S. presidents, and he has done some interesting things in their presence! During a Wednesday, June 4, appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the 75-year-old Miami Vice alum shared that he has visited the White House under every president since the late Jimmy Carter was in office. The conversation started when host Jimmy Kimmel presented Johnson with a photo of himself with Carter, Chuck Leavell and Dickey Betts from 1975 at an Allman Brothers concert. "I don't remember that photo, but we were all stoned," Johnson said about the picture, which appeared to show Betts smoking. The actor was quick to clarify that he was not speaking about Carter, saying, "Well I don't know about him. I don't want to cast any aspersions on the former president. God rest his soul." However, Johnson clearly had a close bond with Carter. After working with the Allman Brothers on a concert during his 1976 presidential campaign, he said that they were invited to the White House. "Then the fun began," he said, prompting Kimmel to point out that "nobody has fun" at the White House. He then walked that back, saying, "I have heard Willie Nelson had fun there," referencing the fact that the country music star smoked marijuana with Carter's son on the roof of the building in the '70s. "Is that the kind of fun you had there?" he asked, clarifying, "Did you smoke at the White House?" Appearing slightly flustered, Johnson replied, "I don't know how to answer this. Well, yes ... I guess I did." Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Another president that the star had a close bond with was the late George H.W. Bush. Johnson recalled representing the United States at the 1992 Winter Olympics in Albertville with the former president, whom he described as "fantastic." "He was a great guy," Johnson gushed. Kimmel questioned if Bush was a stoner, which Johnson denied. However, he said that the president had another playful vice — gambling. "He wanted to gamble when we played golf out at Camp David. And so I took his money," he recalled to laughter and applause from the audience. "I'll tell you something else: He's a trash talker, and he ran into a buzzsaw because so am I." While he did win money from the world leader, Johnson clarified that "it wasn't that much." "Eighteen or 20 bucks," he told Kimmel, adding, "But that's the best 18 or 20 bucks you'll ever get." is now available in the Apple App Store!

However, in 2020, Carter clarified that it was actually with his son James Earl 'Chip' Carter III. "When Willie Nelson wrote his autobiography, he confessed that he smoked pot in the White House one night when he was spending the night with me," the former president said in the documentary Jimmy Carter: Rock & Roll President. "And he says that his companion that shared the pot with him was one of the servants in the White House. That is not exactly true — it actually was one of my sons, which he didn't want to categorize as a pot-smoker like him." Read the original article on People
