The actor, however, shared a funny response when asked about the rumor in a new interview.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\">Cillian Murphy responds to internet thinking he was Emaciated Infected in 28 Years Later<\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">After a trailer was released for 28 Years Later, fans speculated that Cillian Murphy, who starred in the first film of the franchise, 28 Days Later, is the emaciated infected person in the clip. However, after the movie\u2019s release in June 2025, the rumors were put to rest. The zombie in the trailer was not Murphy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In a recent interview with <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/observer.co.uk\/culture\/interviews\/article\/cillian-murphy-i-have-zero-interest-in-contentment\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Observer;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The Observer<\/a>, the Oppenheimer actor had a funny response when asked about the rumor. \u201cThat\u2019s great people think I look like a zombie cadaver,\u201d Murphy responded. \u201cIt\u2019s very flattering.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Murphy is widely known for being off from social media. During the same interview, he shared that his son made sure to let him know about the rumors and showed him the emaciated infected zombie that people have mistaken him for.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">28 Years Later is the first movie in the planned trilogy with Murphy as an executive producer. The actor also revealed that he\u2019s in the upcoming 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. Murphy shared that he appears in the movie only for a brief period. While talking about the sequel, he said, \u201cEveryone\u2019s got to go and see the second one.\u201d His small role in The Bone Temple will lead to a bigger part in the final movie in the trilogy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">According to the trailer, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple is scheduled for a January 16, 2026, release. The movie is directed by Nia DaCosta with Alex Garland returning as the lead writer and Dony Boyle as one of the producers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Originally reported by Harsha Panduranga on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.comingsoon.net\/pop-culture\/news\/2025096-cillian-murphy-respond-rumors-zombie-28-years-later\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:ComingSoon;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">ComingSoon<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yahoo is using AI to generate takeaways from this article.
