28 Years Later

"28 Years Later" (2025), directed by Danny Boyle, continues the gritty zombie franchise with a focus on survival in a rage-virus ravaged UK. Trailer and announcements emphasize horror, tension, and human desperation on an island outpost, without overt progressive messaging. Diverse cast (Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Ralph Fiennes) reflects modern ensemble norms but prioritizes action over identity politics or inclusion lectures. No evident social justice themes; storytelling drives plot per franchise tradition. Mild diversity bumps score slightly. (87 words)
