Danny Boyle Says ‘28 Years Later Part 3’ Will ‘Have a Lot of Cillian Murphy in It’ and Backs Jack O’Connell as the Next James Bond
Danny Boyle is adamant: “28 Years Later” part 3 will happen. “‘28 Years 3,’ or whatever it ends up being called, will get made because people keep asking about it. Quite when I’m not sure, but there’s a script – a very good script by Alex Garland,” he said. And it will feature Cillian Murphy. […]
Danny Boyle, the filmmaker behind the 28 Years Later film, has endorsed Jack O'Connell as the next James Bond, according to Variety. Boyle made the suggestion during a masterclass at the Zurich Film Festival, where he was presenting his latest film, Ink, which features O'Connell in a supporting role. He praised O'Connell's performance saying that "he's weird" and that "you're still intrigued by him" throughout the film.
Boyle drew comparisons to Al Pacino's performance in The Godfather Part II, stating that O'Connell's portrayal of Larry Lamb, a British tabloid editor, was equally compelling. Boyle also complimented the upcoming Bond franchise director, Denis Villeneuve, praising the opening scenes of Dune: Part Three.
