Danny Boyle will (probably) direct '28 Months Later'

Danny Boyle, who in the last decade has gone from respected indie filmmaker to Academy Award winner, wants to direct the second sequel to his 2002 zombie-hit, 28 Days Later.  The tremendously talented director, out promoting his newest flick 127 Hours (which looks phenominal), was asked recently by Dread Central about a proposed third entry in the U.K. based zombie story, 28 Months Later.  When questioned if he would produce this flick, Boyle responded, "Actually, I want to direct it."

This is probably some of the best new I've heard in a while.  When, if ever, does a talented director come back to 'sequel-ize' one of his earlier films after winning an Oscar with commerical and critical success?  Hardly ever.  I think it says a lot about the type of person Boyle is, and the fact that fame hasn't gone to his head (*cough* James Cameron *cough*).  More on this story as it develops.
