It’s been over two decades since 28 Days Later kicked off this franchise in 2002, and Boyle is finally ready to take us back. The original film starred Cillian Murphy in his breakout role and became a massive hit, inspiring a commercially and critically successful sequel 28 Weeks Later.

After years of anticipation, the third film in this franchise is finally on the way. Plot details are being kept under wraps, but it’s safe to assume that the sequel will be set in the same post-apocalyptic world as its predecessors, impacted by a highly contagious virus.

Boyle is coming on board as a director, while Alex Garland wrote the script. Sony Pictures is reportedly plotting this project as the first part of a trilogy, and they’ve already managed to attract some A-list talent. Emmy winner Jodie Comer (Killing Eve), Golden Globe winner Aaron Taylor-Johnson (Bullet Train), and Oscar nominee Ralph Fiennes (The Grand Budapest Hotel) are the first stars to join this project in mystery roles.

The Bikeriders is based on Danny Lyon’s photo book of the same name, and it was directed and written for the big screen by Jeff Nichols, the acclaimed filmmaker behind Mud (2012) and Loving (2016). This marks his first film as a director in seven years – and it was certainly worth the wait.

20th Century Studios’s official logline describes The Bikeriders as “a furious drama following the rise of a fictional 1960s Midwestern motorcycle club through the lives of its members.” It’s told from the perspective of Kathy (Jodie Comer), who’s struggling to navigate her husband Benny’s (Austin Butler) untamed nature after he becomes a member of the motorcycle gang the Vandals.

The film’s impressive ensemble cast also includes Tom Hardy, Mike Faist, Norman Reedus, Michael Shannon, Boyd Holbrook, Damon Herriman, Beau Knapp, Emory Cohen, Karl Glusman, Toby Wallace, and Happy Anderson.

The Bikeriders was met with critical acclaim following its world premiere in Telluride, and it will hit the theatres on December 1.

Based on Danny Lyon’s 1967 book of the same name, this film chronicles the origin story of a fictional Midwestern motorcycle club during the ’60s. What starts as a gathering place for local outsiders gradually evolves into a more sinister gang, threatening the original group’s unique way of life.

Nichols rose to prominence with movies Take Shelter and Mud, but we haven’t seen him helm a new project since 2016 when he directed the sci-fi film Midnight Special and historical drama Loving. He was attached to A Quiet Place: Day One but exited the project last year to focus on another film he was developing at Paramount Pictures.

The star-studded cast of The Bikeriders has also been keeping busy in recent months. Hardy most recently appeared in Venom: Let There Be Carnage, and he’s attached to Gareth Evans’ Havoc and Andrew Dominik’s War Party. Butler is fresh off the success of Elvis and we’ll soon get to see him in Dune: Part 2. As for Comer, she recently received an Emmy nomination for the final season of Killing Eve and she’ll next star in the HBO series Big Swiss.

The cat-and-mouse game between the MI6 agent and Russian assassin Villanelle is set to reach its climax, with production having begun on the final season of Killing Eve. 

Laura Neal is assuming the role of the head writer on the upcoming fourth season, following the pattern of a different female head writer for each. Fleabag’s Phoebe Waller-Bridge helmed season one, followed by Promising Young Woman director Emerald Fennell on season two, and Suzanne Heathcote from Fear the Walking Dead for season three. 

The show shared behind-the-scenes clips announcing that filming was underway. They featured Jodie Comer in one of Villanelle’s elaborate wigs.

Killing Eve has been nominated for numerous awards, with Comer and Sandra Oh picking up an Emmy and Golden Globe, respectively.

The fourth and final season of Killing Eve is expected in 2022.

The film is based on the book by Eric Jager titled The Last Duel: A True Story of Crime, Scandal, and Trial by Combat in Medieval France which chronicled one of France’s last legally sanctioned duels. It’s set in 1386 and sees King Charles VI (Affleck) declare that knight Jean de Carrouges (Damon) settle his debt with squire Jacques LeGris (Driver) after the knight’s wife (Comer) claims sexual assault. The two will duel to death and the one who survives will be the winner, but if Carrouges loses, his wife will be burned at the stake as it’s a sign of her making a false accusation.

The film was written by Nicole Holofcener, Affleck, and Damon and it’s based on an actual event. It’s produced by Scott, Kevin J. Walsh, Jennifer Fox, Holofcener, Damon, and Affleck. Kevin Halloran, Drew Vinton, and Madison Ainley serve as executive producers.

The Last Duel hits theaters on October 15. Check out the trailer below.

Scott decided to entrust Comer with the lead role after being impressed by her work in his upcoming movie The Last Duel. Deadline reports that he was so blown away by her performance that he had her in mind for this part since day one.

Inspired by the life of the French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, this project has been described as “an original and personal look at Napoleon’s origins and his swift, ruthless climb to the emperor, viewed through the prism of his addictive and often volatile relationship with his wife and one true love, Josephine.”

Scott already found his Napoleon in Joaquin Phoenix, who got his first Oscar nod with the role in the director’s 2000 movie Gladiator. Scott is expected to start production on this project after finishing the work on House of Gucci, starring Lady Gaga, Al Pacino, and Adam Driver.
