* BTeamSequel: Danny Boyle intended to direct again, but couldn't due to his commitments to ''{{Film/Sunshine}}''. Juan Carlos Fresnadillo took over directing, with Danny Boyle as an executive producer (although he did direct the opening scene). Rowan Joffé took over writing the script from Alex Garland, who did have some input (the timeline at the beginning was his idea).

** The possible ''28 Months Later'' sequel is perpetually in limbo - for the same legal reasons it's near impossible to film it in the first place and both Boyle and Garland displayed over years variety of stances toward it. Officially it never got cancelled, but nothing was ever done to start making it, either. Over the decade the whole project is a sinusoid, either claimed to "just start working" or "no chance to even start" - and as for last update in 2019, it's again in "just start working" status.

** The film itself went through considerable rewrites and turbulent pre-production, to the point where both Danny Boyle and Alex Garland, respectively director and script writer for the ''Film/TwentyEightDaysLater'' decided to simply remain in executive position, but without direct involvement into filming. They also had a fall-back with their colleagues from the production team of the original, which made another debacle about copyrights and how to even handle the production.
