Danny Boyle is adamant: “28 Years Later” part 3 will happen. 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.
Whether he’ll take his kit off anymore, that I don’t know. He’s got the Oscar now.” Boyle spoke at Zurich Film Festival, where he presented “Ink” – and found some time to weigh in on these Bond rumors. Danny Boyle left “No Time to Die,” allegedly due to creative differences with producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G.
Wilson, as well as star Daniel Craig. It’s a shame, because it could have been really good.” He thinks that Denis Villeneuve will look after the franchise very well. Did you see that beginning of [‘Dune: Part Three’], which they showed before ‘The Odyssey’?
God, if I was directing ‘The Odyssey,’ I would have thought everybody would be disappointed in my film following it. But obviously, Chris Nolan has more confidence than I have.” During a masterclass at the fest, Boyle also gushed about his “Ink” lead Jack O’Connell.

It was true of the guy in ‘Ink,’ because by the end of the film, his moral conscience – if there ever was one – has dissolved entirely as he pursues success. And you still have to root for him.” “I used to say it’s the same as Al Pacino at the end of ‘The Godfather Part II,’ when he has ordered the murder of his brother, and yet you’re still intrigued by Pacino just sitting there all alone.” He wanted to show a different side of Murdoch in the film.
