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.”

28 Years Later explores a world that’s been continuously ravaged by the rage virus, turning millions of people into infected in the original 28 Days Later. In the center of the story is a family living in an isolated island community, trying to make the best out of a horrific reality. Director Danny Boyle and writer Alex Garland wanted the film to be a family story, and explore the dynamics in a bleak environment. “Alex came up with this idea centered around a family. It is inventive writing, in a way that was exciting for everyone involved and helped make us feel like we were making an original film, and not a sequel,” Boyle explains.

About 28 Years Later:

Academy Award®-winning director Danny Boyle and Academy Award®-nominated writer Alex Garland reunite for 28 Years Later, a terrifying new story set in the world created by 28 Days Later. It’s been almost three decades since the rage virus escaped a biological weapons laboratory, and now, still in a ruthlessly enforced quarantine, some have found ways to exist amidst the infected. One such group of survivors lives on a small island connected to the mainland by a single, heavily-defended causeway. When one of the group leaves the island on a mission into the dark heart of the mainland, he discovers secrets, wonders, and horrors that have mutated not only the infected but other survivors as well. Produced by Andrew Macdonald, Peter Rice, Bernard Bellew, Danny Boyle, and Alex Garland. Executive Producer Cillian Murphy. Starring Jodie Comer, Aaron-Taylor Johnson, Jack O’Connell, Alfie Williams, and Ralph Fiennes.
