Academy Award nominee Ralph Fiennes is the eccentric Dr. Ian Kelson in “28 Years Later” In PH cinemas June 18

When asked to describe his character in the virus-ravaged world of 28 Years Later, Ralph Fiennes (Conclave, The Menu, The Grand Budapest Hotel) would say that Dr. Ian Kelson is, “above all, a survivor.” His constant reminder of memento mori – remember death, is a mantra that keeps him going. “He’s accepted the fact of death – that it’s so present,” Fiennes says. “Rather than run away from it, pretend death doesn’t exist, or live in fear of it, Kelson is honoring death and the dead. In a way, he’s a rather clergy-like figure and a humanist.”
