Not much is known about the plot of this sequel, but it’s safe to assume it will be set in the same post-apocalyptic world as its predecessor. This franchise kicked off with 28 Days Later starring Cillian Murphy in 2002, and produced a sequel 28 Weeks Later, led by Robert Carlyle, Rose Byrne, Jeremy Renner, and Idris Elba.

Almost two decades passed since then, and director Danny Boyle is finally ready to revisit this world, alongside screenwriter Alex Garland. 28 Years Later is reportedly being developed as the first film in a new trilogy, and Sony Pictures brought Nia DaCosta on board to direct a potential second film in this series.

28 Years Later cast will be as star-studded as it gets, and it will include Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and Ralph Fiennes. Comer is the Emmy-winning star of Killing Eve, who most recently starred in The End We Start From and The Bikeriders. Marvel star Aaron Taylor-Johnson will next be seen in The Fall Guy and Kraven the Hunter, while the Oscar nominee Ralph Fiennes will soon play Odysseus in The Return.

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar was included in Dahl’s series of seven short stories and chronicled the adventures of a modern-day Robin Hood who brings joy to the hearts of orphans—and fear to the souls of casino owners around the world.

Deadline reported that the project is expected to consist of three mini-films, similar to the Coen brothers’ The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. It’s unclear which stories will be included, but two of them will be autobiographical in nature and explore Dahl’s journey to becoming a writer and his experiences as a fighter pilot in World War II.

Deadline also reports that Benedict Cumberbatch will play Henry Sugar, while the rest of the cast includes Ralph Fiennes, Dev Patel, and Ben Kingsley. Production is expected to kick off next week in London, with the rest of the cast yet to be announced.

This won’t be Anderson’s first foray into the magical world of Dahl’s novels—he also directed Fantastic Mr. Fox in 2009.
