In terms of another outing for the Danny Boyle-helmed property, Boyle himself has been talking about a third movie - which he indicated would be 28 Months Later - since as far back as the 2007 release of 28 Weeks Later.

While Boyle's semi-regular mention of doing 28 Months Later has resulted in nothing concrete in the 13 years since the last entry in the franchise, it now seems even more unfathomable that a third film will be on the table going forward.

It's hard to imagine that a post-apocalyptic, infection-driven film will be at the top of the agenda for any serious filmmakers or studios in the immediate future - that being due to this supposed fiction sharing eerie elements of very real life here in 2020.

Still, once the world gets back to some sort of even semi-normalcy - however long that may take - there are still going to be those horror hounds holding out hope that Danny Boyle will finally get round to putting 28 Months Later together.
