The highly anticipated third installment of the '28 Years Later' trilogy is facing an uncertain future, leaving fans on the edge of their seats! World of Reel has dropped a bombshell, revealing that Sony is hesitating to move forward with the final chapter, despite their previous announcement. But here's where it gets controversial—Netflix is rumored to be interested, but director Danny Boyle insists on a theatrical release.
The sequel, '28 Years Later: The Bone Temple', directed by Nia DaCosta, received critical acclaim, but its box office performance was a letdown. With a budget of $63 million, it only managed a disappointing $25 million domestically and $57 million worldwide. This has sparked debates about the potential reasons for the lackluster turnout, with some blaming audience disinterest and others pointing fingers at the previous installment.
The trilogy, masterminded by Boyle and Alex Garland, has fans eagerly awaiting the fate of the protagonist, Spike (Alfie Williams), who was left in a gripping cliffhanger. The thought of leaving this story unfinished is heart-wrenching for fans.
For those who missed the theatrical release, 'The Bone Temple' is available on VOD, and it's a must-watch for horror enthusiasts. But the question remains: will the third chapter ever see the light of day? And what do you think is the reason behind the film's box office struggle? Share your thoughts below!
