Oscar-winning director Danny Boyle 's new zombie apocalypse film was inspired by the 2016 Brexit referendum, a writer has revealed.
The main conceptual idea of the upcoming Danny Boyle film 28 Years Later is that it is inspired by the political and social division caused by Brexit.
Writer Alex Garland states that the film uses the symbolism of the UK being abandoned and isolating itself, echoing the public's response to Brexit, as a backdrop for its apocalyptic story.
