Danny Boyle Won’t Direct ‘28 Months Later’ Any Time Soon, But Doesn’t Rule It Out

Now, during a Q&A that followed a screening of his latest film, 127 Hours, Mr. Boyle says he could well direct 28 Months Later, but his schedule means it won’t happen soon.
STYD doesn’t have direct quotes from the Q&A, but reports that he is interested in the film and “he told an audience in Washington, D.C. If the fans are there and there is a demand to see a third entry, then it will likely happen.”
The first item on his schedule after the promotion of 127 Hours is a stage version of Frankenstein, which will be mounted in London next year. Adam mentioned that when reporting on this possibility, but there’s another big responsibility on the director’s plate that didn’t make it into our last report: Mr. Boyle is the artistic director for the opening ceremony of the 2012 Summer Olympics in London. Previous reports said he would work on the Games full-time starting early next year.
