Also returning from the original film is producer Andrew Macdonald. He will be joined by Bernie Bellew and Peter Rice, former head of Fox Searchlight Pictures which backed and released the original film.

The deal was the result of an intense bidding war, with Sony ultimately coming out on top. 28 Days Later was a worldwide box-office hit, taking in over $80 million on a $8 million budget. The film spawned a graphic novel in 2007 and is credited for reviving the zombie genre in film and TV in the 2000s and 2010s. The Hollywood Reporter writes that the filmmakers were eager to secure theatrical releases for the two new sequels.
