28 Weeks Later in May ‘07

Speaking of movies I’m excited about. I’m very much looking forward to 28 Weeks Later the sequel to the successful 28 Days Later. The movie is slated for release on May 11, 2007.

Synopsis: Six months after the rage virus has annihilated the British Isles, the US Army declares that the war against infection has been won, and that the reconstruction of the country can begin. Under the strict supervision of the U.S. Military, the first wave of refugees is allowed back into the city. Among them are Don (Robert Carlyle), his new girlfriend Scarlett (Rose Byrne), and Don’s two children. Don lost his wife during the original infection, while Scarlett lost her entire family. All seems under control until a new carrier of the virus makes his way within the quarantined area. As the only known live specimen, he becomes a vital tool to the scientists who hope to learn from their discovery. Call it carelessness or call it bad luck, but the virus eventually spreads once again and now may be even more difficult to contain than the first time around. Jeremy Renner plays Sgt. Doyle who is part of the American Special Forces team working on restoring order in London. Harold Perrineau will co-star as Flynn, an upbeat Special Forces pilot who leads the families returning to London to their safety, while documenting the ordeal with his camera. Elba plays General Stone is the guy overseeing district 1 in London.

Sounds cool. I’m sure it won’t measure up to Danny Boyle’s 28 Days. Sequels rarely do. I will see it though. If the leaked media is any indication it will be a decent zombie film.

Here are some pictures to make you drool:
