Lesson one - You never go anywhere alone, unless you've got no choice. And lesson two - Only travel during daylight, unless you've got no choice.

12 Jan - Twenty-two years after the release of "28 Days Later", Danny Boyle is set to helm the third instalment of his hit horror flick, aptly titled, "28 Years Later".

The British director will be reuniting with the writer of the 2002 movie, Alex Garland for the project which they hope will launch a new trilogy following the previous two movies.

It is noted that a follow-up to the 2002 movie, titled "28 Weeks Later" was released in 2007. However, that film was directed by a different filmmaker, Juan Carlos Fresnadillo.

Danny Boyle will return as director in the upcoming project

As for the new trilogy, Boyle will be helming the first movie, while Garland will pen the scripts of all three films.

In "28 Days Later", Cillian Murphy stars as a man who wakes up from a coma only to find that England has become desolated thanks to a virus that caused the breakdown of society.
