Exclusive: ’28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’ Director Nia DaCosta on Creating Compelling New Chapter

The revered ’28 Years Later’ franchise has invited the masses to its latest chapter – ‘The Bone Temple.’

Eagerly anticipated, ’28 Years Later: The Bone Temple’ picks up immediately after the occurrences in ’28 Years Later,’ centering on the young survivor Spike and the eccentric Dr. Ian Kelson.

Central to the story is whether the degradation of humanity (and the melée attached) has become more of a threat than the infection that has flipped the world on its axis. Powerful performances come courtesy of Ralph Fiennes, Jack O’Connell, Alfie Williams, Cillian Murphy, and more.

The film is directed by Nia DaCosta, who has been on an incredible run of critically acclaimed titles, including ‘Hedda,’ ‘Candyman,’ and ‘The Marvels.’

Fusing her unique lens with the high-octane action folks have come to expect from the franchise, the filmmaker delivered a fresh spin that is already magnetizing praise aplenty.

Sitting down with That Grape Juice, the 36-year-old opened up in earnest about her process of piecing together the Sony Pictures production, what she wants audiences to take away, and more.
