28 Years Later surpasses franchise’s previous installment 

Starring Jodie Comer, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jack O’Connell, Alfie Williams and Ralph Fiennes, the movie surpassed the final cume of the franchise's previous two installments. The movie took only 12 days to surpass 28 Weeks Later (USD 65 million) and 28 Days Later (USD 72.6 million) at the worldwide box office. 

The legacy horror film opened to polarising reactions from across the global territories. Though the movie managed to impress the critics, it met with mixed reactions from the audience. The audience's reception impacted its business heavily. 

Although its sequel is already in development, under the direction of Nia DaCosta. Now, it will be interesting to see whether the makers continue with their plans or think otherwise looking at the performance of the movie. The Danny Boyle directorial is expected to wind its domestic box office journey around USD 65 million to USD 70 million.
