After two decades, Cillian Murphy returns to the franchise that helped define his career.
28 YEARS LATER: THE BONE TEMPLE reunites him with visionary director Danny Boyle for what could be their most ambitious collaboration yet—a film that dares to ask not how we survive the apocalypse, but what we become after it.
In theatres Jan 16, this isn`t about spectacle or escalation. It`s about maturity. Boyle has always excelled at capturing collapse—of systems, of morality, of identity—and now he`s exploring what comes after. What happens when two generations must coexist: those who remember the world before, and those who only know ruin.
Murphy`s return feels essential, not nostalgic. His presence grounds the film in its own history while pushing it forward into uncomfortable new territory. This is a story about staying, not running. About building something permanent in a world shaped by impermanence.
If Boyle and Murphy deliver on this thematic promise, THE BONE TEMPLE could stand as one of the franchise`s most thoughtful entries—proof that true horror isn`t infection, but what we become when we try to move on from it.

From BBC talent show contestant to Golden Globe winner 🏆✨
Jessie Buckley`s journey is pure cinema magic. Eighteen years after appearing on I`D DO ANYTHING as a teenager, she`s now an Oscar frontrunner for her stunning performance as Shakespeare`s wife in HAMNET.
The Irish actor just took home the Golden Globe for best actress in a drama, and with Academy Award nominations dropping January 22, she could become only the fifth Irish actor ever to win that coveted gold statuette.
Even more incredible? Northern Ireland author Maggie O`Farrell, who wrote the original novel, co-wrote the screenplay and could score her own Oscar. A potential double win for the island of Ireland 🇮🇪
Co-produced by Steven Spielberg (who says he "loved" the book) and co-starring Paul Mescal as Shakespeare himself, HAMNET brought together a Chinese director, Irish leads, a Polish crew, and British collaborators to tell the story of England`s most famous writer.
From reality TV to the precipice of Oscar glory—this is what the long game looks like 🎬
