We’ve heard rumors for some time now about another installment in the 28 Days Later franchise — one that, in keeping with the escalation of the title 28 Weeks Later, would be titled 28 Months Later. There hasn’t been much movement on the latest chapter in the series, but that may be changing very soon, according to Ex Machina director Alex Garland, who penned the screenplay for 28 Days Later.

According to my calculations, it’s been 146 months since the initial U.K. release of ‘28 Days Later,’ Danny Boyle and Alex Garland’s rightfully acclaimed zombie movie about the aftermath of a terrible virus unleashed in the middle of London. The film is credited with helping revitalize the zombie genre (and popularizing zombies who run like the dickens at their victims instead of the classic George Romero shufflers), and it inspired a 2007 sequel, ‘28 Weeks Later.’ There was talk of another sequel, a ‘28 Months Later,’ set a little over two years after the zombie outbreak, but so far, the project hasn’t gotten off the ground (and we’re now about 120 months past the titular date).
