    Danny Boyle is adamant: “28 Years Later” part 3 will happen. “‘28 Years 3,’ or whatever it ends up being called, will get made because people keep asking about it. Quite when I’m not sure, but there’s a script – a very good script by Alex Garland,” he said. And it will feature Cillian Murphy. “[It will have] a lot of Cillian Murphy in it.

    Greta Thunberg made a surprise appearance on Tuesday at Zurich Film Festival, where she joined the screening of a new documentary “My Home of Wind and Sand,” which looks at the occupation of Western Sahara by Morocco.

This one, because it’s a Stephen Sondheim musical, is very public. I will have to answer this question for 20 years while we are making it,” he said at Zurich Film Festival.

    Ever since its premiere at Sundance, “Wicker” has been generating headlines. Mostly thanks to its erotic scenes featuring Olivia Colman and Alexander Skarsgård as her custom-woven lover, with both characters putting an enthusiastic spin on Taylor Swift’s “Wood.” The film’s raunchiness might have surprised some unsuspecting viewers at Zurich Film Festival. But Colman adored the script. “I’ve never read anything like it before. It’s in my top three scripts that I’ve loved and I’ve done,” she said
