'28 Years Later's Danny Boyle Reveals Sci-Fi Thriller 'Sunshine' Was Supposed to Start a Trilogy

Danny Boyle, the Academy Award-winning director of films like Trainspotting and this year's highly anticipated zombie sequel, 28 Years Later, helmed a seriously underrated science fiction thriller back in 2007. Titled Sunshine, and starring Cillian Murphy, the movie is a criminally underseen modern sci-fi masterpiece that sadly bombed at the box office, only grossing a little over $34 million from a $40 million production budget. Now, Boyle reveals that if the film had been more popular, Sunshine would have been the beginning of an epic trilogy blending psychological thriller tropes with hard sci-fi.
